From Utterances to Speech Acts

By Mikhail Kissine

"Kissine offers a new theory of speech acts which is philosophically sophisticated and builds on work in cognitive science, formal semantics, and linguistic typology. This highly readable, brilliant essay is a major contribution to the field."

--François Recanati, Institut Jean-Nicod

The study is a language-historical investigation of the use of the conjunctive mood in speech rendition.

The extensive appendix of data sources will be of interest not only to linguists, but also to historians.
