New page

The expression of a '''dissociative attitude''' has been claimed to be a key ingredient of ironical use of language (see e.g. Wilson 2006):

:"The main point in typical cases of verbal irony ... is to express the speaker's dissociative attitude to a tacitly attributed utterance or thought ..., based on some perceived discrepancy between the way it represents the world and and the way things actually are ..." (Wilson 2006: 1724)

The term 'dissociative attitude' applies to attitudes such as scepticism, mockery and rejection, i.e. attitudes in which speakers distance themselves from the committment to the truth or appropriateness of a proposition or utterance.
