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

Query:   For my MA, I am working on the analysis of the economic jargon in the
British, business-oriented press.

I need some hints or guidelines on how to approach this. I have certain
ideas like studying etymology, juxtapositions based on the semantic
representations or word formation processes, borrowings, etc. But how
should I gather it to make any sense?

Thanks you.
