| 요약 | If I mistakenly hear you ask for directions to the "shore" when instead you asked for directions to the "store," the miscommunication is probably an innocent mistake. If, on the other hand, a man misunderstands a woman's refusal of his sexual advances as consent, the mistake seems like it might be deeper. In my dissertation, I look at cases of miscommunication to develop a theory of conversational context and the norms that constraint contexts. I argue that miscommunication can only be adequately understood in terms of an agent-centered notion of conversational context-and not in terms of the shared attitudes of the participants. I then propose an account of the normativity of context to explain why some agent-centered contexts are permissible and some are not. Finally, I engage with Grice's Cooperative Principle, arguing that, consistent with my view of agent-relativized contexts, such a view is misguided. Instead, I argue that we should adopt what I call the Coordinative Principle.My central contention is that we can better explain many cases of miscommunication by appealing to an individualized, agent-relative understanding of linguistic context according to which each participant in a conversation has their own set of attitudes that they use to produce and interpret utterances. According to widely accepted paradigms, conversational context is shared between participants |
