Abstract   (2485 Views)
In Speech Acts, John Searle dealt with the analysis of literal meaningful utterances, but in Expression and Meaning, he generalizes his theory to meaning and uses it to account for performing and understanding nonliteral utterances where the speaker means something other than what he is saying. Thus, Searle’s question about indirect speech acts is how a speaker might say something and mean it, but he also means something else. For this purpose, the area of directives is the most useful to Searle. The presence of decency in acts in the category of directive is Searle’s main motivation for researching indirect speech acts. Still, most examples are found in the acts in the category of commissive and not in the acts in the category of directive. At the same time, Searle’s approach does not conform to the usual explanatory paradigms; it’s somewhat like an epistemological analysis of perception. Thus, this article aims to review, analyze, and critique Searle’s approach.
