商品描述

This book addresses the characterisation and representation of female authority in Shakespeare's political plays by collecting the linguistic behavioural patterns of the queens of the first tetralogy (King Henry VI Part 1, 2, 3 and King Richard III) - Margaret of Anjou, Elizabeth Woodville and Anne Neville - and so by detecting the nature and evolution of their agency. The study is collocated in the field of literary and historical linguistics and draws on an interdisciplinary analytical model informed by pragmatics, (Austin 1962, Leech 1983, Brown and Levinson 1987, Culpeper 1996), stylistics (Simpson 1993, 2004, Burke 2014) and rhetoric (Perelman and Olbrechts-Tyteca 1973, Kienpointner 1987). The resulting analysis gathers and lists the sequence of linguistic recurrences of definite characters through a rigorous methodology, aiming to prove whether and how these queens retain the power to influence the course of the story as well as the other characters through the illocutionary and perlocutionary force of their chosen speech acts, the number and length of their turns, the (im)polite verbal behaviour they perform in face-to-face situations. The conclusion of the study points out its replicability for other sources with the purpose of finding new insights in historical/literary texts and of understanding characterisation through linguistics.

本書探討莎士比亞政治劇中女性權威的特徵與表現,通過收集第一四部曲(《亨利六世第一部》、《亨利六世第二部》、《亨利六世第三部》和《理查三世》)中女王的語言行為模式——安茹的瑪格麗特、伊莉莎白·伍德維爾和安妮·內維爾——來檢測她們的主體性質及其演變。本研究位於文學與歷史語言學的領域,並採用一個跨學科的分析模型,該模型受到語用學(Austin 1962, Leech 1983, Brown and Levinson 1987, Culpeper 1996)、文體學(Simpson 1993, 2004, Burke 2014)和修辭學(Perelman and Olbrechts-Tyteca 1973, Kienpointner 1987)的啟發。最終的分析通過嚴謹的方法學收集並列出特定角色的語言重複序列,旨在證明這些女王是否以及如何通過她們所選擇的言語行為的言外之意和效果,影響故事的進程及其他角色,包括她們發言的次數和長度,以及在面對面情境中所表現的(不)禮貌的言語行為。本研究的結論指出其可重複性,旨在為其他來源尋找新的見解,以便在歷史/文學文本中理解角色特徵化的過程。
