Apie paskaitą:
In a growing body of literature, speech is theorized in terms of joint action. According to this sort of conception, the social nature of central speech acts, such as telling, is to be understood in terms of a symmetrical inter-agential structure: a structure where two participants, speaker and hearer, are engaged in the act as co-agents. In this paper we argue that conceptions of this sort fail to keep in view a different social structure which is also crucial to linguistic exchange. This is an asymmetrical structure where the hearer is rationally receptive and thus figures as a patient rather than as co-agent in the act. We focus on the speech act of telling, engaging critically with recent accounts given by John Greco and Richard Moran. We claim that the asymmetrical model is needed both in order to account for the social and rational nature of speech, and to properly understand just how much is at stake in the ways we are given over to others in speech.
