  • "H.P. Grice virtually discovered the phenomenon of implicature (to denote implications that are not strictly part of what is said), and provided the leading paradigm for research in pragmatics. Gricean theory claims that conversational implicatures can be explained and predicted using general psycho-social principles. Wayne Davis argues controversially that Gricean theory does not work. He shows that any principle-based theory understates both the intentionality of what a speaker implicates and the conventionality of what a sentence implicates."
