Politeness in compliment responses
This paper analyses a corpus of compliment responses in Turkish according to the conversational maxim approach (Leech 1983, 2003) and the face-management approach (Brown and Levinson 1987) with a view to extending the conceptualisation of self-presentation in theorising on politeness. It observes that the two theories ground politeness on consideration for alter and give precedence to politeness in the sense of displaying deference and solidarity…
Face’ across historical cultures
This paper investigates the use of the word ‘face’ in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Turkish and Chinese so as to trace the meaning of the concept in the two languages and cultures. The study describes the occurrence of the lexeme in five semantic/pragmatic domains in novels dating from the turn of the twentieth century, a period that corresponds to an acceleration in modernisation movements. Two conclusions are drawn from the compa…
Face and impoliteness at the intersection with emotions
This paper employs a corpus-based approach to examine the bases of impoliteness via the nature of emotions involved in offending event(s), with a view of teasing apart face concerns from other factors in the management of relations. Drawing from (social) psychology, we consider how emotions can open a window on discerning what type of impolite acts they appear as responses to and what impolite acts they motivate. The occurrence of 20 emotion word…
Face as an indexical category in interaction
Intentionality, communicative intentions and the implication of politeness
Working within the relevance-theoretic paradigm (Sperber & Wilson 1995 [1986]), complemented with the cognitive linguistic approach (Johnson 1987; Lakoff & Johnson 1980), the paper proposes that politeness is an optional metarepresentation of an “interpersonal attitude” (Haugh 2007:91) that concerns the domain of intentionality. The paper first addresses the issue of “noticed” vs. “unnoticed” politeness with respect to utterance processing and ar…
Higher-order Intentions and Self-Politeness in Evaluations of (Im)politeness
This paper argues that subjective evaluations of (im)politeness involve the metarepresentation of speakers’ higher-order intentions, emerging in discourse in the backdrop of the historicity of an interaction. Within the framework of an enriched version of relevance theory, the paper illustrates how linguistic (im)politeness can be investigated by incorporating the notions of self-politeness and higher-order intentions in the metarepresentation of…
Identity, face and (im)politeness
Conceptualizing face and relational work in (im)politeness
"The Bone Motif and Lambs in the Turkish Folktale "The Reed Door
The Aarne-Thompson Tale Type 123, "The Wolf and the Kids," is present in Turkish folklore in a number of variants. This study examines an oral version of the tale in which the plot diverges from other variants. In the tale, the wolf threatens to eat the parents, while the offspring function as protectors of the household. Both parents and offspring are eaten by the wolf. This study analyzes the divergence and the significance of the lamb, the lam…
