Searle's Distinction: Meaning and Communication Intentions

Searle argues for a crucial difference between the intention of communicating meaning and the intention of meaning itself. This distinction is key to understanding his critique of traditional theories of meaning.

The Intention of Meaning

The intention of meaning, according to Searle, is the need to assign a reference to a signifier. This intention can be approached in two ways:

• Referentialist Theories: These theories, also known as traditional theories,

• Positive Deceit: Resulting from an action.
• Negative Deceit: Resulting in an omission.
• Bilateral Deceit: Given the bilateral turpitude, deceit
