Dear subscribers to linguist list,
Do any of you know who it was that first introduced the concept phatic communion? The oldest reference I have is Lyons (1968) (in Zegarac 1998); I also know that Austin (1962) distinguished between phatic and rhetic acts. Is there anyone earlier? Thanks. Ann J. K.
