(Im)politeness is investigated on two levels of analysis: the level of the plot and the story world (intradiegetic level) and the level of the communication between the implied author and implied reader in fiction (extradiegetic level). The pragmatic theory of (im)politeness serves the aim of internal characterisation and helps readers to better understand and explain the characters⁰́₉ motivations and actions, based on the stylistic analysis of their speech and thoughts and point of view. More importantly, the book introduces the notion of "the impoliteness of the literary fiction" a state of affairs where the implied author (or narrator) expresses their impolite beliefs to the reader through the text, which has face-threatening consequences for the audience, e.g. moral shock or disgust, dissociation from the protagonist, feeling hurt or "put out". Extradiegetic impoliteness, one of the key characteristics of McEwan's fiction, offers an alternative to the literary concept of "a secret communion of the author and reader" (Booth 1961), describing an ideal connection, or good rapport, between these two participants of fictional communication. This book aims to unite literary scholars and linguists in the debate on the benefits of combining pragmatics and stylistics in literary analysis, and it will be of interest to a wide audience in both fields. 001454913 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed March 1, 2023). 001454913 60010 $$aMcEwan, Ian$$xCriticism and interpretation. 001454913 650_0 $$aCourtesy in literature. 001454913 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001454913 852__ $$bebk 001454913 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-18690-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001454913 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1454913$$pGLOBAL_SET 001454913 980__ $$aBIB 001454913 980__ $$aEBOOK 001454913 982__ $$aEbook 001454913 983__ $$aOnline 001454913 994__ $$a92$$bISE
