TY - GEN T1 - Metarepresentation : a relevance-theory approach T2 - Pragmatics & beyond ; A1 - Noh, Eun-Ju LA - English PP - Amsterdam ; Philadelphia, PA PB - John Benjamins Pub. YR - 2000 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/ebsco_acadsubs_ocm70731557 AB - Eun-Ju Noh's book provides a close look at linguistic metarepresentation showing how beliefs, utterances, and propositions are represented and how they are inferred. The author explains how metarepresentation works in various types of uses: quotations, negation, echo questions, and conditionals in terms of truth conditions and pragmatic enrichment. Ample examples are provided from the English language. The relevance-theory approach gives room for extralinguistic parameters to be considered, and suggestions are made for further research in cross-linguistic studies and metarepresentation.
