This dissertation argues that ordinary language analysis offers a means of critically evaluating substantive philosophical claims as well as providing a tool for constructing answers to philosophical conundrums. It has been neglected due to some powerful, though ultimately misguided, objections. Those who called themselves ordinary language philosophers did not effectively explain or defend their methodology and thus these objections were never adequately met. This dissertation articulates and defends the methodology and its core theoretical commitments. Ordinary language philosophy is essentially an empirical investigation into how words are used in ordinary (non-philosophical) contexts. Some believed that we could eliminate philosophical conundrums via such analysis. Wittgenstein, for example, thought that most philosophical problems were caused by linguistic confusion. I argue that the methodology does have an important critical role to play, but I also believe that it can be an important tool in constructing genuine solutions to problems. There are different sets of objections to ordinary language analysis corresponding to two different parts of the analysis. One set of objects concern the empirical inquiry into how words are used in ordinary contexts. Primary among them is the concern that, because it relies upon the linguistic intuitions of a single philosopher, the process is too idiosyncratic. My methodology (derived from J.L. Austin's work) achieves objectivity by expanding the pool of people who are consulted and by actually looking at real cases (by, for example, reading the relevant literature) in which the terms and idioms under consideration are used. Native speakers are experts in using these terms and idioms, so, if we expand the pool of speakers enough, we should achieve an adequate picture of how and under what circumstances the relevant terms are used. Another set of objections concern what I call the philosophical part of ordinary language analysis. Among them are concerns that it is committed to the allegedly repudiated notion of the analytic/synthetic distinction; concerns that since meanings are constantly changing, information about meaning is irrelevant to philosophical investigation; and concerns connected to Grice's work on conversational implicature. I discuss each objection and demonstrate how it can be overcome.

An argument for ordinary language philosophy's ability to transform the prevailing understanding of language, theory and reading in literary studies today. This radically original book argues for the power of ordinary language philosophy—a tradition inaugurated by Ludwig Wittgenstein and J. L. Austin, and extended by Stanley Cavell—to transform literary studies. In engaging and lucid prose, Toril Moi demonstrates this philosophy's unique ability to lay bare the connections between words and the world, dispel the notion of literature as a monolithic concept, and teach readers how to learn from a literary text. Moi first introduces Wittgenstein's vision of language and theory, which refuses to reduce language to a matter of naming or representation, considers theory's desire for generality doomed to failure, and brings out the philosophical power of the particular case. Contrasting ordinary language philosophy with dominant strands of Saussurean and post-Saussurean thought, she highlights the former's originality, critical power, and potential for creative use. Finally, she challenges the belief that good critics always read below the surface, proposing instead an innovative view of texts as expression and action, and of reading as an act of acknowledgment. Intervening in cutting-edge debates while bringing Wittgenstein, Austin, and Cavell to new readers, Revolution of the Ordinary will appeal beyond literary studies to anyone looking for a philosophically serious account of why words matter. Praise for Revolution of the Ordinary "A milestone in literary studies. In lucid and invigorating prose, Moi shows how a certain picture of "literary theory" has held us captive and offers a brilliant and devastating analysis of its weaknesses. Drawing on the tradition of ordinary language philosophy, she offers a new vision of how we might think and read. This groundbreaking book will shape conversations among literary scholars for years to come." —Rita Felski, author of The Limits of Critique " Revolution of the Ordinary takes on the formidable challenge of making Wittgenstein understandable and brilliantly shows his work's relevance for critics educated in post-Structuralist, Lacanian, deconstructive, new historicist, culturalist, postcolonial, queer, feminist, and critical race theories. The growing interest in Wittgenstein among both literary critics and contemporary writers and poets absolutely demands this book." —R. M. Berry, Florida State University "This is an agenda-setting work by a preeminent literary theorist. It is also tremendously fun to read. Revolution of the Ordinary is the kind of book that tells literary scholars and philosophers how to repair their relationship, and how to do so without losing what is distinctive about each discipline." —John Gibson, University of Louisville
