Intermission 2: Glyph 2

View through CrossRef
This subchapter (or second “intermission” in the play “Derrida in Montreal”) returns to the 1977 debate between Jacques Derrida and John Searle over the interpretation and inheritance of the speech act theory of John Austin. This chapter focuses on Derrida’s response in the essay “Limited Inc” to John Searle’s criticisms of his 1971 essay “Signature Event Context.” It is argued here that Derrida is, in many ways, the more faithful of Austin’s heirs, even though he will have taken speech act theory in directions that Austin would have no doubt been loath to endorse.
