Speech Acts
I have been reading up on Speech Acts of the New Testament and their linguistic prototypes. I do not understand how I can find this in Logos. Any advice?

Does https://community.logos.com/forums/t/129247.aspx give you the pointers you need?
You can also filter for those in the Bible Browser tool.

I assume you've read the documentation: Parks, James. Speech Acts Dataset Documentation. Bellingham, WA: Faithlife, 2016. Unfortunately, in this case it does not seem to contain a bibliography.
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

That link does not really help me. I am looking for a bibliography. You are correct MJ.

Okay, IIRC John Searle was a major player in the linguistics of speech acts. His works and the scholars who work within his framework should help. H.P. Grice's work is a bit broader but anybody wanting to know how people communicate should have a basic understanding of his work. We're dipping far enough back in my memory that I don't remember specific titles. Logos assumes the basic linguistic knowledge, it does not try to include the resources. Ah ... I realize where I should send you Speech Acts (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) gives you a start and a bibliography.
