The Language Usage in the Field of Politics
PODANÁ, Alena
The topic of the presented bachelor thesis is The Language Usage in the Field of Poli-tics. The thesis is divided into two main chapters. The Theory of Cooperative Principle by Herbert Paul Grice and Politeness Principle by Geoffrey Leech are presented in the first part of the thesis. Their description is supported by an example from the Corpus. The Corpus of the thesis consists of ten political interviews conducted in the time frame between August and November 2015 and published in the newspaper ´Die Welt´. The topic of all ten interviews is tightly connected to the ´Immigration crisis´ in Germany. The aim of this thesis is to ascertain whether the Cooperative Principles and Politeness principles in the political interviews are observed or non-observed and whether the sys-tem of their usage has changed in the given period. The analyzed data are presented in the second part of the thesis and the results are supported by the example from the cor-pus.
Pragmatic Principles in Informal Interaction/Pragmatické principy v neformální konverzaci
PODANÁ, Alena
This thesis deals with performance and non-performance of the Grice´s Cooperative Principle and the Leech´s Politeness Principle in modern spoken language. In the theo-retical part both of these theories are introduced, described and explained using exam-ples from the corpus. In the practical part, the corpus, the Pilot episode of the TV series Parenthood, is analysed. First, the dialogues in corpus are analysed employing the Co-operative Priniple. Second, the dialogues in the corpus are analysed employing the Po-liteness Principle. The aim of this thesis is to show whether and to what extent employ-ing one theory impacts the other. The analysis of the effect of employing one theory on another is described in the last chapter of the practical part of this thesis.
