Literary discourse of speech acts
Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Speech acts represent fundamental units of communication that reveal not only linguistic forms but also deep cultural values. The act of requesting, suggesting, and apologizing manifests diverse pragmatic strategies across languages. This article provides a comparative linguocultural analysis of these acts as realized in Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman, O‘tkir Hoshimov’s Ikki karra ikki besh, and Shawdirbay Seytov’s Igbal soqpaqlari. The study interprets the speech acts using the frameworks of Austin (1962) and Searle (1969) on illocutionary force, Trosborg’s (1995) taxonomy of request strategies, Olshtain and Cohen’s (1983) apology models, and Jiang’s (2015) taxonomy of suggestions.
