Opis

This book includes a precise pragmatic analysis of Bin Ali, Mubarak and Qaddafis speeches during the Arab Spring revolutions which launched at the end of 2010 and reached its peak in 2011. The book concentrates on four pragmatic tools, namely, speech acts, politeness phenomenon, impoliteness phenomenon and personal pronouns (deixis). The use of each president of such pragmatic tools is clearly shown in this book through tables and charts to help illustrate their different range of usage. The book also includes a rich analysis that shows a comparison between the three presidents.
