Disimplicature

Speranza

We can classify the (truth-theoretic) paradoxes according to their degrees of paradoxicality. 

Roughly speaking, two paradoxes have the same degrees of paradoxicality, if they lead to a contradiction under the same conditions, and one paradox has a (non-strictly) lower degree of paradoxicality than another, if whenever the former leads to a contradiction under a condition, the latter does so under the very condition. 

Grice aims at providing some basic open questions about the paradoxes around the notion of the degree of paradoxicality.
