Abstract

Abstract Pragmatics—the study of language in relation to the uses of language and the context of its use ‐ is distinguished from semantics—the study of the propositional content of what is expressed in language. Pragmatic presupposition is distinguished from semantic presupposition. The apparatus developed is used to clarify Keith Donnellan's distinction between referential and attributive uses of definite descriptions.
