“…It appears to me (and to people like Kent Bach, 2001) that for semantics to work, it needs a pragmatic path. Only against a background of clues and cues (Dascal 2003), do linguistic intentions emerge. Semantics would not be enough to fix intentions.…”

“…formal logic, see e.g. Carston, 2002;Dascal, 2003;Lyons, 1977). It may therefore be hypothesized that in a great many complains concerning food names which do not explicitly address sensory properties, but focus on ingredients, physical origin, etc., the complainant has simply ruled out the possibility of explaining the wider implications of these ''hard facts" for his or her sensory liking of the product a priori.…”

“…11 Wittgenstein (1975: 63) reminds us that "if you exclude the element of intention from language, its whole function then collapses". And Grice's (1989) theory of meaning is, of course, intention-based (see, e.g., Borg, Forthcoming;Chruszczewski 2006: 159;Dascal 2003a;Davis 1998;MacKay 1972;Neale 1992;Schiffer 1972Schiffer , 1982Sperber and Wilson 1995;Suppes 1986;Wilson 1970).…”

Robin T. Lakoff and Sachiko Ide (eds), Broadening the Horizon of Linguistic Politeness. Amsterdam: John Benjamins, 2005, xii+342 pages. ISBN 90 272 5382 X Fascinations for Brown and Levinson's (1987) paradigmatic politeness model have evolved into obsessions or even frustrations on the part of many scholars doing linguistic politeness, who, after three decades of research, are still asking "What is politeness?" and many other ontological, epistemological and methodological questions (Eelen 2001). Broadening the Horizon of Linguistic Politeness represents, to some degree, an admirable endeavor to break away from the limitations of Brown and Levinson's politeness model and to advance our understanding of politeness and ourselves. After a critical review of this book, I present a preliminary case for evaluative (im)politeness, exploring how insights from cognitive linguistics that emphasize embodiment, as well as from recent (im)politeness research may be drawn upon to broaden the horizon of linguistic (im)politeness. It is argued that, if we want to obtain a deeper and clearer picture of (im)politeness and ourselves, top priority should be given to evaluative judgments in (im)politeness studies, that more attention should be paid to meaningdeconstruction and meaning-reconstruction after the interaction, in addition to meaning-construction in the interaction, and that on-line and off-line (im) politeness evaluations should be distinguished, with more attention paid to the latter.
