Searle on "Grice on meaning: 50 years later" 3 years later

Grice on Meaning: 50 Years Later
Authors:Searle, John R
Source:Teorema, 26(2), 9-18. 2007.
Persons as Subjects:GRICE, H PAUL

Abstract:

"Grice's important article attempts to analyze meaning in terms of the intention to communicate. This analysis has been subject to many counterexamples. Grice confuses meaning and communication. I offer an account of meaning in terms of intentionality which will avoid the counterexamples, but is Gricean in spirit because it preserves the self-referentiality of the intention to communicate."
