Ambiguities and Performatives: and Performances, Too. Graham Hough; Chris Kraus/ Jenny Turner
The most striking sentence in the late Graham Houghâs essay âAn Eighth Type of Ambiguityâ is: ââŠbehind Empsonâs seven types of ambiguity there lurks an eighth â ambiguity between intended and achieved meaningâ (p. 223). Hough illustrates the difference between intended and achieved meaning elegantly, in a series of pieces of literary analysis with which none of the old âNew Criticsâ could disagree, and which any post-Derrida, post-Theory (theory of what?) critic need not cavil at. For all the commonsensicality of Houghâs literary analysis, it is not quite clear that Empsonâs seven types and Houghâs eighth type one of the same logical type. This is a question to which I shall have to return. It is the issue crucial to what seems to be Houghâs claim to add 1 to Empsonâs 7: If, indeed, that is his claim.
