Abstract
Recently, two anti-contextualist philosophers, Herman Cappelen and Ernie Lepore, suggested that in the relationship between sentences and speech acts one should adopt speech act pluralism. I reconsider Austin’s notions of the locutionary, illocutionary and perlocutionary acts and argue that these distinctions presuppose speech act pluralism. I then discuss speech act pluralism as it applies to illocutionary acts in particular.File in questo prodotto:
