Promisings and other Social Acts: Their Constituents and Structure

  • Kevin Mulligan
Chapter
Part of the Primary Sources in Phenomenology book series (PSIP, volume 1)

Abstract

One of the reasons why the subject of speech acts is so much fun, is that you don’t have to worry about what all the great figures from the past said, because most of the great philosophers had no theory of speech acts. You can’t go and find Kant’s view on apologising or congratulating, as far as I know . . . (Searle 1984, 251)
