Isi artikel

Swindal seeks to incorporate temporality into the formalpragmatic analysis of discourse by developing what he calls ‘eventdetermining’ reflection. After outlining his motivations for introducing this new form of reflection, I offer a critique, first, of his appeal to meta-discourse about when to engage in discourse and, second, of the function of truth in his account. Finally, I suggest that Swindal’s theory of reflective acceptability fruitfully complements Robert Brandom’s normative pragmatics.
