Through bottom-up analysis of interview data collected from Korean speakers from two generations, the authors map out a participant-oriented perspective on politeness and use these findings to build new theoretical models. The results shows that politeness is a multimodal practice tied up with maintaining emotional attunement and engaging in acts of upkeeping or contesting social conventions. The book features a thorough overview of extant research in the field, three in-depth data analysis chapters and a detailed discussion of the results. By focusing on the culture-specific and empirically grounded ways that language users understand politeness, the book contributes to current trends in im\/politeness research, notably “third wave” approaches that view politeness as a culturally embedded social action. Moreover, the book lays the groundwork for researching metapragmatics via interview data that can be applied to other languages and aspects of pragmatics. This book is a must-read for scholars and students of politeness research, pragmatics, linguistics and cultural studies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lucien Brown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53652270711111,"sku":"9783031816437","price":117.69,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/5455\/2903\/files\/politeness-metapragmatics-ebook-cover.webp?v=1775347025","url":"https:\/\/www.cinebuch.de\/products\/politeness-metapragmatics-lucien-brown-ebook","provider":"CineBuch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
