Abstract

This study explores the pragmatic politeness strategies employed in Franz Kafka’s novel "The Metamorphosis." Utilizing Brown and Levinson's (1987) politeness theory, the research analyzes how the characters navigate social interactions and maintain relationships in the context of Gregor Samsa’s transformation. The analysis reveals a dynamic use of bald on-record, positive politeness, negative politeness, and off-record strategies throughout the novel. Initially, the family’s interactions with Gregor are characterized by positive politeness strategies aimed at preserving normalcy. However, as Gregor's condition deteriorates, negative politeness and off-record strategies become more prominent, reflecting growing emotional and psychological distance. The father's frequent use of bald on-record strategies underscores the collapse of familial bonds and the rise of authority and control. These findings align with existing theories on politeness and impoliteness, demonstrating their applicability to literary analysis. The study also highlights Kafka’s depiction of alienation and existential angst through the characters' evolving politeness strategies. By examining the shifts in these strategies, the research provides insights into the social dynamics and psychological states within the Samsa family. This analysis contributes to the broader discourse on the intersection of language, society, and literature. The study underscores the importance of context in understanding politeness and its role in shaping character interactions and narrative themes.

Abstract

This study examines the use of metaphors in poetry through both linguistic and literary lenses. By analyzing cognitive structures and conceptual mappings, we explore how metaphors transform abstract ideas into tangible imagery, enhancing thematic depth and emotional resonance. The integration of cognitive linguistics and literary criticism reveals the dual function of metaphors: as cognitive tools shaping understanding and as artistic devices enriching poetic expression. Through detailed case studies, we demonstrate the interdisciplinary nature of metaphor analysis, offering insights into the cognitive and aesthetic dimensions of metaphorical language. This research underscores the importance of metaphors in both linguistic and literary contexts, contributing to a comprehensive understanding of their role in poetry

Abstract

This study explores the use of figurative language in Melanie Martinez's songs "Dollhouse" and "Mrs. Potato Head," highlighting how these linguistic elements contribute to the thematic and emotional depth of the lyrics. Through a detailed analysis, the research identifies and interprets various figures of speech, including metaphors, similes, and personifications, which Martinez employs to address complex themes such as family dynamics, societal pressures, and self-image. The findings reveal that figurative language in "Dollhouse" vividly portrays the façade of a seemingly perfect family life, while "Mrs. Potato Head" uses similar techniques to critique beauty standards and the pursuit of physical perfection. By examining the intricate use of figurative language in these songs, the study underscores Martinez's ability to convey powerful messages and evoke emotional responses, enhancing listeners' engagement and understanding of the underlying issues. This analysis not only contributes to the appreciation of Martinez's lyrical artistry but also provides insights into the broader implications of figurative language in contemporary music.
