Very readable introduction
23 de mayo de 2000
Por Adam Potthast
- Publicado en Amazon.com
Formato:Tapa blanda
I would highly recommend this very readable introduction to the pragmatic revolution in linguistics. The book is organized incredibly well with each chapter dealing with a curiously inexplicable lingusitic phenomenon that just happens to have a clean, pragmatic answer. Levinson weaves linguistic theory and philosophy of language well with a very readable format and style. I found it especially useful as a primer for recent philosophy of language.

Not Your First Choice in Pragmatics
22 de junio de 2008
Por Nick
- Publicado en Amazon.com
Formato:Tapa blanda
For the reader with no time to lose, I'll start right away by telling you which book on Pragmatics you ought to get if you want a good introduction to it: "Pragmatics" by George Yule, because it is much more concise, to the point, covers a lot of ground quickly, deals with the essential.
Now, Levinson's book is a book I read twice, and from which I never retain anything. The first time I read it - entirely - I could not mention anything I had read in there. I thought I was simply a bad reader, but after having studied pragmatics for a long time, I realised that the book was simply not well written. It goes into complicated details too fast, before the reader has any real grasp on the matter, and gets lost in discussions that readers usually aren't able to understand, nor care for.
Typically, I'd say that Levinson's book is an "introduction" written by someone who knows not what it is like to know nothing about pragmatics. And even when you know of the subject, you still find his book rather difficult to follow.
I strongly urge you to consider George Yule's book on pragmatics rather than this one.

An excellent introduction to pragmatics
20 de octubre de 2007
Por Yosem Companys
- Publicado en Amazon.com
Formato:Tapa blanda|Compra verificada por Amazon
While this book is dated since it has not been updated since 1983, it remains as a classic introductory text for the field of pragmatics. The book does a great job of introducing the reader into various areas of the pragmatics field in an interdisciplinary fashion but with an explicit focus on linguistics. The major problem of the book is that someone lacking a background in syntax/semantics will find the book challenging to read. Moreover, the book requires a solid grounding in logic to understand well. In sum, I would recommend this book as an excellent introduction to pragmatics, but I would caution the buyer to read an introductory linguistics text prior to buying this book.
