Brief
Description
Doctor in Philosophy by
the University of Granada (Spain) with a dissertation on the meaning of
metaphor and the logic-semantic principles of its expression and
production (1992).
Tenured Lecturer of
Philosophy of Language in the Philosophy Department at the University
of Granada.
I systematically work
with the linguist
Belén Soria (since 1993). We currently share a
research project on meaning and pragmatic processes funded by the
Spanish Ministry of Research, Science and Technology.
Research Interests
My research has always
been addressed to problems of philosophy of Language or disciplines
related to it.
Since 1987, I have
devoted myself to the topic of metaphor, its characteristic features
and its role in verbal communication. I have also worked on the
explanation of the different inferential processes that allow the
interpretation of different types of utterances (metaphorical,
metonymical, elliptical, etc.), in particular, of those processes that
intervene in what is said. Intimately related to this is my interest in
justifying what features of utterances trigger one process of
interpretation rather than another.
I am a regular reader of Grice and what is written about him.
