Foundations of Speech Act Theory investigates the importance of
speech act theory to the problem of meaning in linguistics and
philosophy. The papers in this volume, written by respected
philosophers and linguists, significantly advance standards of
debate in this area.
Beginning with a detailed introduction to the individual
contributors, this collection demonstrates the relevance of speech
acts to semantic theory. It includes essays unified by the
assumption that current pragmatic theories are not well equipped to
analyse speech acts satisfactorily, and concludes with five studies
which assess the relevance of speech act theory to the
understanding of philosophical problems outside the area of
philosophy of language.
