Welcome to the Pervasive Context Project

Pervasive Context is a new AHRC funded research project (running October 2014-Summer 2016), involving researchers from the University of Reading, UK, and Peking University, China. The project will explore the ways in which features drawn from the context of utterance can influence claims about the meaning of linguistic items, looking in particular at recent views in philosophy of language which suggest that the influence of contextual features may be pervasive throughout philosophy of language. If you would like to get involved with the project in any way, please do get in touch.
