The main goal of this book is to present a new integrated pragmatic approach to communication. The approach has been called pragmatics of identity. It's major feature is that it aims at integrating pragmatic views (research on politeness, face-work, etc.) with insights from different research fields into an extended framework where psychological aspects of communication in context also can be taken into account.Studies in Pragmatics ;4.Grammar, Comparative and generalHonorificPragmaticsSociolinguisticsGrammar, Comparative and generalHonorific.Pragmatics.Sociolinguistics.306.44Caffi Claudia284984NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910974544403321Mitigation1137714UNINA
