不礼貌理论应用于戏剧语篇的认知语用探析

A Cognitive Pragmastylisitic Study of the Application of the Theory of Impoliteness into Dramatic Discourse

礼貌一直是语用学研究的重要内容。国内外关于礼貌的研究不胜枚举,但对不礼貌的研究却鲜有关注。事实上,不礼貌也是人类交际中比较常见的现象。文学作品中的矛盾冲突更是和言语不礼貌相随相伴,在戏剧语篇中尤为如此。研究戏剧语篇的不礼貌现象对了解作品的情节发展、分析人物的性格刻画有着至关重要的意义。本文以不礼貌理论为基础,对"逆礼貌"这一概念进行界定和分类,并根据构建的逆礼貌模式,以莎士比亚戏剧《无事生非》中的具体实例为语料进行语用文体分析,旨在探讨认知语用学理论与文学语篇结合的新路向。

Politeness has always been a core area of studies in pragmatics.There is countless literature on politeness research at home and abroad.However,little attention has been paid to the studies of impoliteness.In fact,impoliteness is also a common phenomenon in human interaction.The conflicts in literary works go hand in hand with verbal impoliteness.This is especially true in dramatic discourse.A study of the politeness phenomena of dramatic discourse is of great importance in the plot development and charicaterization analysis.This paper,based on the theories of impoliteness,defines and classifies the notion of ＂counter-politeness＂.The study takes its data from the examples in Shakespeare＇s Much Ado About Nothing in order to probe into the new approaches in the prospect of the combination of cognitive pragmastylistics and literary discourse.
