Model theoretic semantics of performatives
In Ferenc Kiefer (ed.), Hungarian General Linguistics. Benjamins (1982)
| Abstract | [...] I will only investigate [Austin's] claims as challenges to present-day model theoretic semantics. My main point will be to draw a sharp line between the semantic and pragmatic aspects of performatives and thereby discover a gap in Austin’s treatment. This will in my view naturally lead to the proposal in Section 2, that is, to treating performatives as denoting changes in intensional models. The rest of Section 2 will be concerned with the status of felicity conditions and a tentative extension of Montague’s PTQ. | |||||||||
