One of the main contributions of this important book is that it
offers a thorough survey of the theoretical and empirical
developments that have occurred in the area of (im)politeness in
the different regions of the Spanish-speaking world, gathering
together overviews by distinguished scholars. Additionally,
the book advances the field with new empirical research on
linguistic (im)politeness, and silence and (im)politeness, in a
range of (non)institutional contexts, as well as new perspectives
for the study of (im)politeness. A closing chapter by the editors
provides an assessment of salient trends in the area and
directions for future research.
"Research on Politeness in the Spanish-Speaking World" is essential
reading for senior undergraduates and graduate students in Spanish
pragmatics and Spanish linguistics, sociolinguistics, and discourse
analysis. The volume is also very useful to English-speaking
scholars in the general field of pragmatics who are not proficient
in Spanish but require access to these empirical studies.
