Abstract:
Politeness as practised across 22 European societies, firmly set within critical debates developed over recent decades, is here presented in ways related to concrete situations in which language-users interact with one another to achieve their goals. Areas covered include types of politeness, forms of address, negotiation and "small-talk" in various contexts.
