Elizabeth Black, Pragmatic Stylistics. Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 2006.
Although it has 'Pragmatics' in the title, you will notice that it covers much of the ground that we have covered in this module. You may find the book interesting because it offers further or different perspectives on what I have discussed in my lectures. There are also additional material on ideas or concepts that we were not able to cover for this module, given the time constraint and the fact that our course is more elementary than what the book covers. Here are the chapters of the book in relation to our lecture notes:

One question you may want to ask is whether pragmatics is actually this wide. In our module, pragmatics is confined to the study of speech acts, the cooperative principle, and politeness (the first two are dealt with in chapter 2 of Black's book, and politeness in chapter 6). So, for the purpose of this module, we assume by default that we are referring to the narrower definition of pragmatics, unless we are told otherwise.
