Summary:The Routledge Handbook of Pragmatics provides a state-of-the-art overview of the wide breadth of research in pragmatics.

Mey. A further thirty-eight chapters cover both traditional and newer areas of pragmatic research, divided into four sections: Methods and modalities, Established fields, Pragmatics across disciplines, Applications of pragmatic research in today’s world.
