基本説明
Drawing on theorists including Grice, Peirce, Bakhtin, Wittgenstein, Burke and Derrida, the author consolidates the disparate action-approaches to language into a coherent new paradigm for the study of language as speech act.
Full Description
In this book, Douglas Robinson introduces a new distinction between 'constative' and 'performative' linguistics, arguing that Austin's distinction can be used to understand linguistic methodologies. Constative linguistics, Robinson suggests, includes methodologies aimed at 'freezing' language as an abstract sign system, while performative linguistics explores how language is used or 'performed' in those speech situations. Robinson then tests his hypothesis on the act of translation.
Drawing on a range of language scholars and theorists, Performative Linguistics consolidates the many disparate action-approaches to language into a new paradigm for the study of language.
