More about the book

The book introduces a motivation model of pragmatics (MMP) that addresses the current skepticism towards deeper theoretical explorations in language studies. Rong Chen critiques the overemphasis on linguistic fluidity and proposes that understanding the motivations behind language use can provide a coherent framework for various contexts. This model is applied to diverse fields such as (im)politeness, cross-cultural communication, and identity construction. It aims to reconcile fluidity with stable concepts, making it a valuable resource for students across multiple disciplines.
