Relevance Theory, Grice and the neo-Griceans: a response to Laurence Horn’s ‘Current issues in neo-Gricean pragmatics’

In this short forum piece, I respond to three of the main points Laurence Horn made in his replies to questions from Istvan Kecskes in this journal (Horn 2005a). My response will naturally (and as requested) reflect my relevance-theoretic allegiances, but I am looking as much for points of agreement and/or complementarity between Relevance Theory and Horn’s neo-Gricean framework as for divergences.
