Abstract

JAIMES, Federico Javier. Evaluative Predicates and Context: About Cuestiones de Filosofía del Lenguaje: Pragmática by David Pérez Chico. Anal. filos. [online]. 2024, vol.44, n.1, pp.157-171.  Epub Sep 26, 2023. ISSN 1851-9636.  http://dx.doi.org/10.36446/af.e987.

In his most recent book, Cuestiones de Filosofía del Lenguaje: Pragmática, David Pérez Chico (2022) presents a very interesting selection of papers on different topics currently discussed in the philosophy of language. Personally, I consider this book an essential reading for any Spanish-speaking reader who wants to be introduced to the most contemporary discussed topics in the philosophy of language. Within this framework, in the present paper I propose to carry out a critical analysis of four papers in the compilation that deal with the topic of evaluative utterances, i.e., utterances whose extension depends on semantically non-standard contextual parameters.

Keywords : Evaluative Utterances; Predicates of Personal Taste; Faultless Disagreement; Relativistic Assertion.
