I bought the book "Readings in the Philosophy of Language" edited by
Jay F. Rosenberg and Charles Travis.

Thanks. Yes, I see they reprinted Grice´s "Meaning". It is a good
collection. Charles J. Travis went on to investigate topics of truth
and pragmatics. E.g. how an opaque intention to communicate that the
cat is on the mat may be CAUSED by the cat actually being on the mat.
It is a good collection.
The late Jay Rosenberg (Reed 1963), also wrote /Linguistic
Representation /(1974) and /One World and Our Knowledge of It: The
Problematic of Realism in Post-Kantian Perspective/ (1980), but he is
best known for /The Impoverished Students' Book of Cookery, Drinkery, &
Housekeepery/, which he wrote as an undergraduate.

I understand it's still available at the Reed bookstore, in case any of
the list's impoverished students are interested.
