Abstract:

This forth volume in the Studies in Pragmatics (SiP) series is a fittingly 
solid, well-illustrated and theoretical account of Mitigation (as form of 
Politeness). The main goal of this book is to present a new integrated 
pragmatic approach to communication. The approach has been called 
´pragmatics of identity'. It's major feature is that it aims at integrating 
pragmatic views (research on politeness, face-work, etc.) with insights from 
different research fields into an extended framework where psychological 
aspects of communication in context also can be taken into account.


The Studies in Pragmatics series is dedicated to publishing innovative, 
authoritative monographs and edited collections from all micro-, macro- and 
metapragmatic linguistic perspectives. Rooted in the interdisciplinary spirit of 
the Journal of Pragmatics, it welcomes not only book proposals from 
linguistics proper but also pragmatically-oriented proposals from neighboring 
disciplines such as interactional sociology, language philosophy, 
communication science, social psychology, cognitive science, and 
information science. The goal of the series is to provide a widely read and 
respected international forum for high quality theoretical, analytical, and 
applied pragmatic studies of all types. By publishing leading edge work on 
natural language practice, it seeks to extend our growing knowledge of the 
forms, functions, and foundations of human interaction.
