  • The paper will focus on intentional and contextual aspects which characterize discursive intervention and, therefore, should not make them vanish when addressing an aspect of discourse such as fallacies. I will try to clarify, by examples, the importance of context to judge any communicative act and I will address, finally, a curious type of fallacy (ironic fallacy) that serve as guidelines for establishing the complexity of certain fallacies, their ambiguity and their uncertainty if we do not respond to the multiple dimensions that characterize the use of arguments. Fallacies are not autonomous textual objects, are the tip of the iceberg of something much more intricate and complex, if we do not consider the intentions and aspirations of those involved in the discursive context and the circumstances surrounding the course of the conversation, identifying fallacies can be extremely confusing and erroneous. Ultimately we could be victims of the ambiguity that can be released from a purely “logical’’ analysis of discourse.
