  • Requests in Business Scenes of the Movie <i>The Devil Wears Prada</i> from the Viewpoint of Politeness

説明

The purpose of this study is to examine requests in business scenes of the movie The Devil Wears Prada, using the Politeness Theory by Brown and Levinson and “requests” framework proposed by Leech (2014). Brown and Levinson propose five strategies, (1) without redressive action, baldly, (2) positive politeness, (3) negative politeness, (4) off record and (5) Don’t do the FTA, in which (1) without redressive action, baldly , (3) negative politeness and (4) off record are related to requests. On the other hand, Leech (2014) categorizes requests in The Pragmatics of Politeness as “Direct strategy”, “Indirect strategy”, “Hints” and “Pragmatic modifiers”. The requests to be analyzed include not only general requests but also instructions and commands. In conclusion, the present study has demonstrated that Miranda, who is portrayed as a devil-like boss working in the fashion industry, tends to use “imperatives” to express business affairs effectively and “question hints” in terms of sentence forms, although irony is sometimes conveyed in indirect expressions.
