The Relationship Between Generative Grammar and (Relevance-Theoretic) Pragmatics.
Carston, Robyn
Language & Communication, v20 n1 p87-103 Jan 2000
Suggests that, although pragmatic theory is like grammatical theory in that it seeks full explicitness and is pitched at the level of subpersona systems, it is unlike grammatical theory in that it is an account of performance mechanisms rather than of knowledge systems (competence). (Author/VWL)
