Comment:
What do we actually mean, when we make an utterance and what are our intentions? What kind of actions can be carried out by linguistic utterances, which conditions must be fulfilled so that our utterances make sense? We will be dealing with questions like these in our seminar and we will apply theoretical concepts to English texts both in spoken and written form. The focus of our attention will be on functions of language (according to Bühler and Jakobson), speech act theory (according to Austin and Searle), indirect utterances and misunderstandings (presuppositions, implicatures according to Grice), and general aspects of (im-)politeness theory.
