The present paper aims to discuss the concept of concession and the various senses in which it has been used in the literature. The fact that the term concessive has acquired many different senses is not to mean however that we have been dealing with a terminological chaos but rather that the understanding of concession has been undergoing a continuous development paralleling the development of new linguistic theories and the emergence of new fields of linguistic studies.
