What is Said and What is Infra-Said: The Fine Line Between Linguistic Semantics and Pragmatics and its Consequences for Syntax
Patrick Duffley
This book challenges the traditional split between semantics and pragmatics. It argues that sentences lack fixed, context-free meanings and that meaning depends heavily on context. Duffley argues we should focus on the stable meaning that words express, and treat everything else as pragmatic, or context-dependent
