Etiolations

Joe Friggieri

pp. 50-69

Abstract

In "Performative Utterances", at the end of his discussion of different kinds of "unhappiness' or "infelicity", Austin mentions utterances issued in the course of acting in a play or making a joke or writing a poem, "in which case, of course," he says, the utterance "would not be seriously meant and we shall not be able to say that we seriously performed the act concerned" (1979: 241).
