J. L. Austin
John Langshaw Austin is an English philosopher and a major advocate of conventional language philosophy, perhaps best known for developing the theory of verbal behavior. Austin points out that we use language to do things as well as to assert things and saying a sentence like "I promise to do this and that" is best understood as doing something - Making a promise - not making an affirmation about anything. Hence the name of one of his most famous works is How to Do Things with Words. Austin, in formulating his theory of verbal behavior, posed a significant challenge to linguistic philosophy, going beyond simply unraveling a class of functional form sentences. show what they name. Finally, Austin's work suggests that all discourses and speeches are doing something about words and signs, defying a metaphysics of language that can be regarded as denominational assertions and paradigms. Thread is the essence of language and meaning.
