Imperatives - Key Topics in Semantics and Pragmatics
Jary, Mark (Roehampton University, London)
This book explores one of the most central and puzzling features of language: imperative sentences. It is the first systematic survey to employ data from a range of languages, including many outside the Indo-European family and it provides a comprehensive and in-depth critical discussion of existing semantic and pragmatic theories.
