SPEECH ACT THEORY AND THEORETICAL FOUNDATIONS OF LINGUISTIC PRAGMATICS

This article analyzes the formation and development of Speech Act Theory and its role within linguistic pragmatics. The study emphasizes the multidimensional and multistage nature of speech acts and their dependence on communicative context and extralinguistic factors. The theoretical foundations established by John Austin and John Searle are examined, along with contributions by H. P. Grice, Teun A. van Dijk, Anna Wierzbicka, and T. V. Larina. Particular attention is paid to illocutionary acts, performative utterances, communicative strategies, and cultural communicative norms. The article concludes that a comprehensive interpretation of speech acts requires consideration not only of linguistic structures but also of background knowledge, pragmatic presuppositions, and cultural factors influencing communication
