Politeness Phenomena in England and Greece: A Cross-Cultural Perspective

by Maria Sifianou (Author)

Synopsis

This work presents an application of Brown and Levinson's theoretical work in a full-length comparative case study. The analysis illustrates and supports the general claim that, despite popular stereotypes, there can be no objective verification for the view that one nation is politer than another.
