Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2018 in the subject Speech Science / Linguistics, University of Babylon (College of Education), course: Linguistics, language: English, abstract: Justification may be a prerequisite for any claim that is made, whether the claim is about a weather forecast by a meteorologist, an accusation of negligence by an employee against his or her employers, or a doctor's diagnosis. Justification denotes a communicative act which is meant to compensate for the violation of a certain norm or to enable recipients to understand better something unpredicted or disputed.Although justification is ubiquitous in everyday life, it has so far remained relatively unexplored in general and in the political domain in particular. Therefore, this study examines its pragmatic aspects in some selected British and American political speeches. It sets itself the task of fulfilling the following aims: (1) finding out the various criteria of justification resorted to by British and American decision-makers and discovering the most frequent criterion; (2) detecting the types of justification that are most recurrently used by British and American decision-makers in the data understudy ; (3) identifying the pragmatic structure of justification employed by British and American decision-makers shedding some light on its most basic structural components; (4) finding out the different pragmatic strategies employed by British and American decision-makers to justify their decisions and detecting the most frequent ones; (5) identifying the similarities and differences between British and American decision-makers regarding the use of the criteria, types, strategies and basic structural components of justification ; (6) specifying the role played by strategic maneuvering in justification; (7) designing an eclectic model for data analysis; (8) shedding some light on the different approaches proposed to account for the complex nature of justification. To achieve the aims of the study and assess the validity of its hypotheses, a number of procedures are followed: (1) reviewing the literature relevant to justification and enhancing its pragmatic nature; (2) developing an eclectic model to be used in analyzing the data under study through surveying the relevant pragmatic theories; (3) randomly selecting data as representative examples for both British and American political speeches and analyzing them by means of the model developed for this purpose; (4) conducting a statistical analysis to support the findings of the pragmatic analysis; and (5) Conducting comparison between the strategies used by the British and American decision-makers.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This work concentrates on the speech act of complaint. It studies complaints in some selected English and Arabic novels. Complaints are of two kinds: direct and indirect. Whereas a direct complaint is a face-threatening act, i.e., it threatens the hearer's positive face because he/she is held responsible for the perceived offence, an indirect complaint has the potential of building solidarity between interlocutors through the realization of shared feelings. The findings of the study show that complaints can be expressed both directly and indirectly in the selected English and Arabic novels with a difference in the distribution of the two kinds. While direct complaints represent 58% of the English data compared to 42% in the Arabic data, indirect complaints form 41% of the English data compared to 57% of the Arabic data. Additionally, the study has found out that complaint in English is exclusively implicit while in Arabic it can be both implicit and explicit. 200 pp. Englisch.…
