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

Abstract: Sentence and text segmentations refer to weight, rank and scope we can attribute to
the arguments they contain. In these terms, segmentation of speech units implies a
hierarchy between predicate constituents in a finite set of both linguistic operations
and relational networks. This basic intervention lists some questions about it, giving
a few examples of sentence and text frameworks, within a context of L1-L2.
