«Actos de habla» is John Searle's essay on the philosophy of language, published by Ediciones Cátedra in paperback (208 pages, in Spanish).
Searle presents language as an activity governed by norms: the minimal unit of communication is the speech act, so that saying something also implies doing something. The work examines acts such as asserting, promising, or commanding and places them within a more general theory of action, where intention and meaning appear linked.
The work belongs to the Teorema: Serie Mayor collection. The original text was written in English; the present edition renders it into Spanish.
Suitable for students and readers of philosophy of language, linguistics, and semantics, as well as for those approaching the theory of action.
