Maynard. 330 $aFrom the perspective of philosophical contrastive pragmatics, this study investigates our multiple selves as manifested in how we use language. Based on analyses of original and translation texts of Japanese and English literary works, the Japanese self is proposed as being fundamentally empty and yet richly populated with multiple subjective aspects, characters, and characteristics. Incorporating the concept of emptiness drawn from Japanese philosophical traditions and postmodernism primarily developed in the West, selves evidenced in grammar, style, and variation are investigated applying interpretive resources of linguistic subjectivity, character, and character-speak. Expressive gaps found in source and target texts across two languages lead us toward different ontological views, and guide us to engage in the rethinking of the concept of self. 410 0$aStudies in Pragmatics ;$v20. 410 0$aLanguage and Linguistics E-Books Online, Collection 2022. 606 $aCreativity (Linguistics) 606 $aDiscourse analysis 606 $aJapanese language$xDiscourse analysis 606 $aJapanese Linguistics 606 $aLanguage and languages$xStyle 615 0$aCreativity (Linguistics) 615 0$aDiscourse analysis. 615 0$aJapanese language$xDiscourse analysis. 615 0$aJapanese Linguistics. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xStyle. 676 $a495.6/0141 700 $aMaynard$b Senko K.$0863462 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 912 $a9910964383103321 996 $aExploring the Self, Subjectivity, and Character across Japanese and Translation Texts$94323566 997 $aUNINA
