O knihe

This book is concerned with pragmatically studying strategic maneuvering in British and American televised interviews. It deals with political discourse and how it should be reasonable and effective. To this end, an eclectic model is developed where many pragmatic areas are involved in such an interaction as: speech act, hedges of the cooperative principle, conversational implicatures and politeness along with the need of the rhetorical aspect as maneuvering strategies. The book sheds light on the most problematic areas in political strategic maneuvering. These fuzzy areas must be delineated and made clear because they impinge upon understanding how political speeches appeal themselves to the readers and how in turn these readers could find out the impetus behind these maneuvering. This book is of value in the fields of pragmatics, stylistics, applied linguistics, and politics. In addition, it is useful to political analysts and commentators as well as those who are interested in forensic linguistics. Students can make use of this book as it sheds light on the pragmatic side of strategic maneuvering in political interviews using a pivotal eclectic model.
