In addition to introducing a denotational meaning, utterances often convey an expressive meaning, that provides information about the speaker or the judger. This volume collects original research papers on the semantics and pragmatics of expressive meaning in interaction with speech acts, and on the way that these two domains are encoded in syntax. By covering a broad variety of well-known and new expressive phenomena –including non-lexical datives, tense, modality, expletive negation, minimizers, conditionals, or mood– the contributions uncover the pervasive presence of expressive meaning across speech acts, while providing new insight into the old and new issues at the semantics-pragmatics interface.
