Thompson's abstract in the Theorema issue for Grice -- on "H. P. Grice's legacy -- in the philosophy of language"

Abstract:

"In this paper, I outline evidence of Paul Grice's enduring influence in psycholinguistics and the philosophy of language. I focus on two particular cases: the role of 'intentions' within developmental psycholinguistics and the notion of 'what is said' within current debates over the notion of semantic content and the semantic-pragmatic boundary. I end the paper with a brief discussion of a possible difficulty facing those who hope to square Grice's stance on naturalism with this work."
