Constructive Pragmatics and Semantics

Constructive pragmatics and semantics, many of you will not know what that is. Serious knowledge of this activity means getting involved in it in the way of a practical insight. As far as I can see this insight would amount to a change of life for many linguists. So obviously, as normal for a morally serious discourse, we cannot settle the matter this afternoon, and the SFB 99 can be hopeful that the semantics-festival will go on with only a rather short pragmatic interruption.
