Annotation

It is argued that a description of 'constative' speech act types like, e.g. 'affirm', 'contest', 'assure' etc. can be built on an analysis of 'assertion', which is considered to be the basic constative speech act type. Reflexions on a description of 'constative discourses', especially argumentations, are included.
