The implicature seems to be: 'and ending with Grice'. But that's cancellable. The locus classicus here is J. W. Allison, "Word and Concept in Thucydides." Allison thinks that either Thucydides influenced Grice or the other way round. Cheers, Speranza References McGARRIGLE, Persse, "The Influence of T. S.
