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 all,

Three weeks ago, I sent a query on ergativity in Amazonian languages and valence changing. Below I list the bibliographical references I have received from the readers of both Linguist List and Etnolinguistica.
