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

Summary:   Dear linguists,

Two months ago I submitted a query concerning research on language and
communication awareness of adults actively engaged in business and
administration (LINGUIST 9.1679). I would like to thank Dennis
R. Preston (preston@pilot.msu.edu), Carla Luijks (cl@isdnet.co.za) and
Stacy Krainz (krainz@acsu.buffalo.edu) for their help, especially for
the references to an unpublished study and to a book that will shortly
appear:

- Nancy Niedzielky/Dennis R. Preston: Folk linguistics, Berlin: Mouton de
Gruyter.

- Stacy Krainz: A sociolinguistic investigation of the cognitive
organization of language awareness: Male vs. female perspectives,
State University of New York, Buffalo, May 1996.

As the number of responses was moderate, I suppose that studies on
language and communication awareness in the work place are not very
numerous or even not existing at all. I would still appreciate any
further information about research in this area. Thanks again.

Sincerely
