Pragmatics of Politeness, The Sushil Beriwal The Council of Chalcedon inThis readable book presents a new general theoretical understanding of politeness. It offers an account of a wide range of politeness phenomena in English, illustrated by hundreds of examples of actual language use taken largely from authentic British and American sources.
