Abstract:
|
|
|
The idea that saying would be ruled by general pragmatic principles is not giving any clue when the diversity of utterance-types is to be accounted for. But in order to study this diversity, and for instance that we can say things which are not informative at all (but are argumentative or directive) but are still relevant, we need to ask the same question, i.e. the question of their relevance to all types of utterances, and compare the answers. It is shown here that beyond this diversity, what makes an utterance different from a proposition is that it associates a proposition with a modal frame. In other words, that utterances are saying something simultanesously about what is the case and what is not the case. It is shown then that the different types of utterances are building different modal frames, i.e images of what is possible, and specific descriptions are made to describe the conditions of relevance of argumentative utterances, performative (directive) utterances, informative utterances, etc.
