Overview

Presents a foundation of the pragmatics of reported speech, from reported speech as intention and as perception, and shortcomings of nonpragmatic reductionist approaches in a historical and pragmatic light. This title seeks to address direct speech, typicality and free indirect speech, and probes the question framework from the perspective of the general function of judges' reported and dyadic questions. It also examines the nature of judicial-referral hearings, verifications, falsifications and preliminary reports.
