T1 - An epilogue and note on cross-cultural hypocrisy
AU - Culpeper, Jonathan
PY - 2024/3/1
Y1 - 2024/3/1
N2 - This chapter very briefly comments on some of the chapters of this volume, and then focuses on what has not been covered: hypocrisy across cultures (and languages). With a particular focus on British English and culture, it notes synchronic contrasts, specifically with Israeli “dugri” speech, and diachronic contrasts, from the mediaeval period to today. It argues that Haugh’s (Chapter 7, this volume) notion of “sincere hypocrisy” is key to British English politeness. Finally, it reminds readers of how “sincere hypocrisy” fits the range of hypocrisy types, and finishes with a re-statement of Sorlin and Virtanen’s (Chapter 2, this volume) pragmatic definition of hypocrisy.
