Book Synopsis The Logic of Conventional Implicatures by : Christopher Potts
Book excerpt: This text revives the study of conventional implicatures in natural language semantics. The author uses the original concept defined by H. Paul Grice as a key into two areas of natural language - supplements (appositives, parentheticals) and expressives (honorifics, epithets).
