Hello,<br>
<br>
I'm putting together a new class about language and (im)politeness and<br>
would like to know what readings you think might be worthwhile to look at<br>
in a course like this. This includes grammatical (im)politeness (like T/V<br>
forms) as well as metapragmatics and style. Broadly speaking, I'm open to<br>
things that touch upon language of respect and deference, along with taboo<br>
or "fighting words," in any setting or space.<br>
<br>
My research is on honorifics in Cambodia, so I have lots of sources on<br>
Southeast Asian languages and person-reference terms. I'm also considering<br>
some old works (Brown & Levinson, Brown & Gilman) along with the<br>
Anthropological Quarterly special issue in 2011 (edited by Fleming &<br>
Lempert). I feel like I might be missing any newer sources. I think social<br>
media and the internet must have new emergent rules about language and<br>
(im)politeness.<br>
<br>
This course begins next week, so if you could get back to me by this<br>
**Friday, March 22** as I continue to work on my syllabus this weekend, I<br>
would appreciate it. (If anyone wants to know the story why this message is<br>
coming to you late, read my PS below.) Feel free to send any and all<br>
sources that you think might be useful. But any late sources will still be<br>
appreciated. I will teach this course again next year, so any lingering or<br>
late responses will still be helpful as I continue to think about shaping<br>
the course. Thank you in advance!<br>
<br>
All the best,<br>
Cheryl<br>
<br>
P.S. I do apologize for this late request. I wanted to make the request<br>
earlier, but The Linguist webpage was giving me issues. I was previously<br>
subscribed to this list using an older email from my time as a PhD student<br>
that I rarely check. I am now a new professor at Carleton so I wanted to<br>
re-subscribe using a newer email, which I check daily. However, for some<br>
reason, Carleton's malware software deemed the Linguist webpage a threat<br>
and blocked all Carleton laptops from accessing the Linguist website.<br>
Because of this, I was unable to access it to access the page to<br>
re-subscribe. I had to make an IT ticket and it took them several days to<br>
investigate. They finally said the malware software was miscategorizing the<br>
website (or the website was misconfigured), so they had to put the website<br>
on the exception list. After finally accessing the Linguist webpage<br>
and re-subscribing with my new email, I did not know that there was a<br>
secondary step of clicking on an approval link because that email had gone<br>
into my spam folder. Before knowing all of this, I tried to send this email<br>
request twice, but the Linganth moderator kept saying my message was being<br>
denied because I was a non-member.<br>
