RESUMEN
Primero, el artículo presenta una discusión de las similitudes y diferencias entre el concepto “decorum”, fundamental en retórica, y el “principio de relevancia”, expuesto por Grice y modificado por Sperber y Wilson, con el objeto de enfatizar la continuidad teórica que existe entre ellos. Posteriormente, se plantea la necesidad de considerar, en una teoría de la argumentación, la “relevancia” desde la perspectiva del “decorum”, ya que la adecuación de las emisiones de un hablante no es solo materia de cirscunstancias o expectativas, sino también materia de objetivos y estrategias que un hablante despliega para configurar su caso y convencer.
ABSTRACT
First, the paper discusses similarities and differences between the concept “decorum”, fundamental in rhetoric, and the “principle of relevance”, used by Grice and modified by Sperber and Wilson, to emphasize the theoretical continuity between them. After this, the paper points out the necessity to consider “relevance” from the perspective of “decorum” in argumentation theory, because relevance is not only a matter of circumstances or expectations, but also a matter of objectives and strategies that the speaker uses to build up his case and to convince.
