授業の概要と目的(何を学ぶか)Outline and objectives
Semantics is the study of meaning in language. Pragmatics is the study of the ways people use language in actual conversations. The aim of this course is to provide students with an essential understanding of semantics and pragmatics, with examples drawn from English and Japanese.
到達目標Goal
By the end of the course, students will:
(1) Have a general understanding of the interface between semantics and pragmatics.
(2) Understand key concepts and major theories in the fields.
(3) Survey the wide range of semantic and pragmatic phenomena in all their richness and variety.
この授業を履修することで学部等のディプロマポリシーに示されたどの能力を習得することができるか(該当授業科目と学位授与方針に明示された学習成果との関連)Which item of the diploma policy will be obtained by taking this class?

授業の進め方と方法Method(s)(学期の途中で変更になる場合には、別途提示します。 /If the Method(s) is changed, we will announce the details of any changes. )
This course begins by covering some essential issues of semantics. In subsequent lectures, we will discuss how the identification of the semantic contribution of words and sentences gets us only partway to understanding what an utterance means. The course is a combination of lectures, group discussions, and review exercises. Feedback will be given during class discussions as necessary.

授業計画Schedule
授業形態/methods of teaching:対面/face to face
※各回の授業形態は予定です。教員の指示に従ってください。
1[オンライン/online]:Introduction
Course overview of Semantics and Pragmatics
2[対面/face to face]:An Overview of Semantics
Describes the components of linguistic meaning and introduces lexical and compositional semantics.
3[対面/face to face]:Lexical Semantics (1): The Meanings of Words
Examines the different ways that word senses could be represented in the mind of a language user and discusses the types of reference that words can have.
4[対面/face to face]:Lexical Semantics (2): Word Relations
Discusses the kinds of meaning relationships that exist between words.
5[対面/face to face]:Compositional Semantics (1): The Meanings of Sentences
Introduces propositions, truth values, and truth conditions, and discusses relationships between propositions.
6[対面/face to face]:Compositional Semantics (2): Putting Meanings Together
Introduces the Principle of Compositionality in more detail and discusses different ways that lexical meanings combine to give rise to phrasal meanings.
7[対面/face to face]:Practice (1)
Provides exercises, discussion questions, and activities.
8[対面/face to face]:Language in Context
Explores several ways in which context can affect the meaning of utterances, and introduces the idea of felicity in discourse.
9[対面/face to face]:Rules of Conversation
Discusses why conversation needs to follow rules, and introduces Grice's maxims for cooperative conversation.
10[対面/face to face]:Drawing Conclusions
Shows ways in which language users may employ context to convey or derive meaning that is not part of an utterance's entailed meaning.
11[対面/face to face]:Speech Acts
Outlines many of the jobs that speakers accomplish with language and the ways in which they accomplish them.
12[対面/face to face]:Presupposition
Discusses another precondition for felicity.
13[対面/face to face]:Practice (2)
Provides exercises, discussion questions, and activities.
14[対面/face to face]:Examination & Wrap-up
Semester-end exam
授業時間外の学習(準備学習・復習・宿題等)Work to be done outside of class (preparation, etc.)
Students are required to read the relevant reading materials carefully in advance so that they can actively participate in discussions. Practice problems will be assigned occasionally. Preparatory study and review time for this class are 2 hours each.
テキスト(教科書)Textbooks
No textbooks are used. All reading materials will be provided in the classroom.
