Words, Deeds, Bodies by Jerry H. Gill concentrates on the
interrelationships between speech, accomplishing tasks, and human
embodiment. Ludwig Wittgenstein, J. L. Austin, Maurice
Merleau-Ponty, and Michael Polanyi have all highlighted these
relationships. This book examines the, as yet, unexplored
connections between these authors' philosophies of language. It
focuses on the relationships between their respective key ideas:
Wittgenstein's notion of "language game," Austin's concept of
"performative utterances," Merleau-Ponty's idea of "slackening the
threads," and Polanyi's understanding of "tacit knowing," noting
the similarities and differences between and amongst them.
