Abstract

This article adopts a cognitive-linguistic perspective on communication through indirect speech acts in Patrick White’s novel, “The Aunt’s Story.” We employ the notion of indirect speech acts as a tool for analyzing listener responses in indirect communication events. The responses to indirect speech act coordinate communication, providing a conceptually unified understanding or misunderstanding of the indirect utterance. The methods applied here include targeted sampling, contextual interpretation, quantitative analysis, and descriptive methods. The objectives are as follows: 1) to investigate how listener responses to indirect speech acts differ in terms of types and functions they perform in conversation; 2) to highlight that listener responses to indirect speech acts construct and coordinate different types of communication in the speaker’s dialogues; 3) to specify the predominant type of indirect speech act communication by analyzing listener responses in Patrick White’s novel, “The Aunt’s Story.” This paper examines how listeners' responses to indirect speech acts contribute to cooperative and uncooperative communication. The study demonstrates that proper listener responses to indirect speech acts mostly lead to successful types of indirect communication in Patrick White’s novel, “The Aunt’s Story.”
回应帕特里克-怀特小说《姨妈的故事》中的间接言语行为
本文采用认知语言学的视角,探讨帕特里克-怀特的小说《姨妈的故事》中通过间接言语行为进行的交流。我们将间接言语行为的概念作为分析听者在间接交流事件中反应的工具。对间接言语行为的反应协调了交流,在概念上统一了对间接言语的理解或误解。本研究采用的方法包括定向取样、语境解释、定量分析和描述性方法。研究目标如下1)研究听话者对间接言语行为的反应在类型和功能上有何不同;2)强调听话者对间接言语行为的反应构建并协调了说话者对话中不同类型的交流;3)通过分析帕特里克-怀特的小说《姨妈的故事》中听话者的反应,明确间接言语行为交流的主要类型。本文研究了听者对间接言语行为的反应是如何促进合作与不合作交流的。研究表明,在帕特里克-怀特的小说《姨妈的故事》中,听者对间接言语行为的适当反应大多会导致成功的间接交际类型。
