- The aim of contemporary pragmatic theories is to account for all the interpretive processes involved in communication. Work in Sperber and Wilson’s Relevance Theory (1986/1995) currently seeks to address a dimension that seems to us to be crucial: the dimension of non-propositional effects. The reason this is so important is that, for a range of historical reasons, theories of utterance interpretation have historically avoided explaining such effects, intrinsically linked as they are with the communication of emotion. The communication of emotion should be central to any the pragmatic theory, and this article attempts to bring affect into the pragmatic domain.
