Katz citing Grice:
1987. Common sense in semantics. In E. Lepore. Grice (1968) on meaning
cited on pp. 165ff. Grice/Strawson 'In defense' cited on p. 176 ff.
1976. Katz/Langendoen. Cited by Gazdar 1979:42. The "special notion of
conversational implicature" can be eliminated:
"Someone conversationally implicates P in saying S in the context C just in
case (a) PRAGM [hypothetical function] assigns the reading R as its output
for a structural description of S & appropriate info about C & (b) the
proposition represented by R -> [semantically -- truth-conditionally --
entails] P."
Gazdar comments: [sadly?], this "obliterates" Grice's "fundamental
distinction between implicating and explicating" (saying).
Cfr. again R. Carston, Pragmatics and the explicit-implicit distinction. UCL.
