Abstract
Austin's Speech Act Theory gives a lot of inspirations to literary discourse research, but he also denies the force of literary discourse at the same time. Many literary theorists such as J. Hillis Miller, Van Dijk, Jonathan Culler, Richard Ohmann, have deeply analyzed characteristics of literary speech act. Literary speech act manifests not only in the dialogues between the characters in literary works, but also in the author's expressions to the reader through literary creation.
