Abstract
In his much discussed essay Meaning (1957) H. P. Grice chose an approach to Pragmatics which is independent of all specific terms of speech act theory and thereby not burdened with specific problems of that theory. It can remain open here as to whether this is a completely different approach: this depends upon where the core of speech act theory is seen to he; an answer to this question, however, depends upon where the boundary is to be drawn between speech act theory and Grice’s theory of Pragmatics.
