Ian,
In stating that most of the references in Bock's article were
published over twenty years ago, it would be instructive to add that
most of the theory in those books is now four or more decades old.
The authors of those works were drawing on ideas that were current
around the middle of the last century.
These are just a few titles snatched from bibliographies I had on
hand, Fillmore, Blackmore, Sperber-Wilson and Gutt appear to be
recognized authorities:
Blakemore, Diane. 1992. Understanding Utterances. Oxford, U.K.;
Cambridge, Mass.: Blackwell.
de Blois, R. -- anything you can find by R. de Blois. His monograph
is a little bit hard to obtain but he used to have some articles on
his web site.
Fillmore, Ch.J. and B.T. Atkins. 1992. “Toward a Frame-Based Lexicon:
The Semantics of RISK and its Neighbors” in Frames, Fields, and
Contrasts - New Essays in Semantic and Lexical Organization (eds.
