    John Searle's Speech Acts (1969) and Expression and Meaning (1979) developed a highly original and influential approach to the study of language. But behind both works lay the assumption that the philosophy of language is in the end a branch of the philosophy of the mind: speech acts are forms of human action and represent just one example of the mind's capacity to relate the human organism to the world. The present book is concerned with these biologically fundamental capacities, and, (...)

What triggers the initial element of a causal sequence causes the sequence itself, so whatever might cause the relevant inner state would also cause the action.

  • He Wants to Try.Alfred R. Mele - 1990 - Analysis 50 (4):251 - 253.
    Is it a conceptual requirement on wanting to try to do something, A - or on an agent's acting on such a want - that the agent want to A? The cases with which I am familiar allegedly supporting a negative answer are, for a reason that I shall sketch, unconvincing. However, a negative answer is defensible, and partly by appeal to case.
