“…(Haugh, 2013, p. 55). Research has acknowledged two interrelated bases for evaluations of im/politeness: Norms and canons of social appropriateness (Eelen, 2001;Locher and Watts, 2005;Haugh, 2007;Holmes et al, 2011;Terkourafi, 2011) and the moral order of the society (Bargiela-Chiappini, 2003;Terkourafi, 2011;Kádár and Haugh, 2013;Haugh, 2013). Terkourafi (2011), in a meticulous survey of the history of politeness in different cultures, concludes that politeness, regardless of time and place, comprises a set of norms of propriety which has a regulatory role in society and is closely associated with the moral creed of the society (cf.…”

“…We have some evidence that the topic of food is managed very differently in Māori meetings, where it is frequently a sanctioned agenda topic in a context where hosting guests/clients is generally treated as a core component of business (Marra, King & Holmes fc). This suggests the value of focussing on talk about food as yet another dimension of subtle differences in the discourse of culturally contrasting workplaces (Holmes, Marra & Vine 2011). This paper has thus provided a starting point for exploring a topic that, like small talk, has previously been discounted or regarded as peripheral.…”

“…Recent research, including our own work in New Zealand workplaces, has clearly demonstrated that relational talk makes a crucial contribution to achieving workplace objectives (Holmes 2007;Holmes, Marra & Vine 2011;Locher 2004;Schnurr & Chan 2011;Murata 2011). Oiling the interactional wheels and maintaining good relationships with colleagues is an increasingly recognized aspect of effective leadership, for example, and small talk and humor are discourse strategies which demonstrably contribute to these goals.…”

CLU-SAL publishes monographs and edited collections, culturally oriented grammars and dictionaries in the cross-and interdisciplinary domain of anthropological linguistics or linguistic anthropology. The series offers a forum for anthropological research based on knowledge of the native languages of the people being studied and that linguistic research and grammatical studies must be based on a deep understanding of the function of speech forms in the speech community under study. His research focuses on spoken English, with a particular attention to narrative as well as verbal humor, and is rooted in the wide field of pragmatics. His monographs include Conversational Joking: Humor in Everyday Talk and the popular Conversational Narrative, which has recently been reprinted in paperback edition.He co-edited a handbook on phraseology and volumes on the Foundations of Pragmatics and on Humor in Interaction, which has also seen a reprint in paperback. After many years as Special Issues Editor, he is now Co-Editor in Chief of the Journal of Pragmatics. He also serves on the Consultation Board of the International Pragmatics Association (IPrA) as well as on the editorial boards of a number of journals from the fields of pragmatics and humor studies (e.g. Text and Talk and Humor).In this millennium only, he has published more than 50 articles in peerreviewed journals and edited volumes reflecting his manifold interests in language in use, its forms and functions, including topics as diverse as conjunctions, interjections, pragmatic markers, tellability, swearing, remembering, listener practices, similes, scripted performances, laughter, conflict, and the construction of identities in talk. Uniting his two passions, language and cooking, he has worked on recipes as early as 1983. His recent addition to the field of culinary linguistics is on "Conversational recipe telling" (2011).The articles in this volume were written and assembled as a token of gratitude and affection for our teacher, mentor and colleague.1. We would like to thank the student helpers of English linguistics, above all Isabel Schul and Daniel Recktenwald, for their help, and also our colleagues at the English department of Saarland University and everybody else for not "spilling the beans." Aperitivo Overview of the volume Maximiliane FrobeniusSaarland UniversityThe present volume contains a collection of original research articles from multiple disciplines, revolving around the common theme of language and food and the manifestation of the two within their cultural framework. This section gives a brief overview of the general structure of the volume and of the individual contributions.Similar to the intricate task of composing a four course meal for invited guests, the assembling of an edited volume demands a sense of "what goes together. " The metaphor of the menu serves as the vehicle for the order of contributions: we start with an introduction to the whole field of research (Antipasti), move on to contributions in the form of original research ar...

“…Whilst leadership discourse has not been overtly foregrounded in this paper, the use of the front/backstage analysis can be of use to researchers trying to unravel the interactional construction of leadership identity, particularly in situations with multiple leaders such as co‐leadership, shared leadership or distributed leadership structures (e.g. Holmes, Marra and Vine ; Vine et al ). By analysing talk between leaders as backstage and the discursive performance of leadership duties on an organisational level as frontstage, a thread of continuity between events is maintained that represents a focus on organisational goals.…”

“…By analysing talk between leaders as backstage and the discursive performance of leadership duties on an organisational level as frontstage, a thread of continuity between events is maintained that represents a focus on organisational goals. This is important for the study of leadership discourse, as one of the driving factors in analysing leadership discourse is that it is of relevance to the needs of leaders, and one of these needs is how their leadership behaviour enhances the business of their organisation (Bolden ; Holmes, Marra and Vine ; Ladegaard ; Schnurr and Chan ).…”

Interaction without walls: Analysing leadership discourse through dramaturgy and participation

Goffman's dramaturgical model of interaction is often used to examine how communicative events are framed differently in public and private settings. However, this idea has restrictively been conflated with specific spatial locations. This paper contends that it is not the place where discourse is performed that styles it as front or backstage, but rather the stances taken in interactions, and the participation framework involved. Furthermore, backstage can be used to negotiate stances later performed frontstage, where they may index wider, ideological aspects of identity. This is demonstrated through the analysis of a sequence of linked backstage and frontstage interactions that involve two rugby coaches. The extracts presented and analysed take place in a New Zealand rugby team, a type of organisation in which space is particularly fluid. The dramaturgical model is demonstrated to be of use in examining leadership discourse within organisations, particularly in organisations in which multiple leaders exist.
