The term “bonding” points to the sense of co-presence, belonging, and alignment with others as well as with the space of interaction. We analyze bonding as established, not only through the usage of language as a foregrounded code, but also through multi-layered contexts shared on the interactional, corporeal, and socio-cultural levels. The volume comprises twelve chapters examining the processes of bonding (and un-bonding) using situated discourse taken from rich ethnographic data including police suspect interrogations, Skype-mediated family conversations, theatrical rehearsals, storytelling, business email correspondence and advertisements. While the book focuses on processes of bonding in Japanese discourse, the concept of bonding can be applied universally in analyzing the co-creation of semiotic, pragmatic, and communal space in situated discourse. 05 No man is an island which explains the significance of this book looking into social bonding. Both enlightening and enthralling, this collection can be credited as a trailblazer in exploring bonding in situated discourse. And it's safe to say that it is bound to appeal to scholars from linguistic, ethnographic, semiotic, sociological fields, communication studies and beyond.

The prosecution process in Japan is notorious for unduly allowing the police to extend the detention period while various types of ploys and threats can be attempted to make a suspect to confess to the accused crime. Although such “bonding” between a suspect and the police may sound like a misleading characterization, one can expect to find comparable features to what we typically observe in “bonded” relationships. I will examine how the bond between a suspect and interrogators, established in an inhumane environment called <i>daiyō-kangoku</i> ‘police detention cell,’ can be modified in the interrogation process. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.02dun 39 59 21 Chapter 4 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Chapter 2.

This chapter examines how reported thought is used in Japanese narratives to shift frames between a narrating voice (anchored in the current situation) and a narrated voice (anchored within the story world). Functions of reported thought include: drawing contrasts between what was thought and what was (not) said; creation of a vivid, emotional narrative through the enactment of inner speech; and allowing speakers to perform speech acts while partially escaping responsibility for their illocutionary force. Reported thought allows narrators to momentarily shift footing without challenging genre conventions or established social roles and relationships. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.03ide 61 82 22 Chapter 5 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Chapter 3.

Analyzing the narratives of women in three different groups (i.e., housewives, dual-income working women, and farmer women) in Japan, we demonstrate how the use and the non-use of -<i>te kureru</i> benefactive differently indexes husband and wife bonding in childrearing, while reflecting and reproducing contrasting ideologies regarding gender relations within the family. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.p2 83 1 Section header 6 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Section II.

Drawing on a sociocognitive theory of context, I analyze interactions taken from my fieldwork in the United States and research interviews in New Zealand. Against the dominant trend of antimentalism in linguistic anthropology, I focus on common ground (CG) as a cognitive context in interaction. Analytically, I attend to face strategies and relationship implicative actions. My point is argue that the notion of CG needs to be refined and extended by taking into account ideological components. For further empirical studies, I suggest that we should specify what kinds of ideologies are integrated into components of common ground and explore how we can create bonding between participants with conflicting ideologies across national boundaries. Implications for linguistic anthropology are also discussed from an evolutionary perspective. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.06hat 123 144 22 Chapter 9 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Chapter 6.

Through analyses of participants’ personal narratives as immigrants and their relationships with their husbands’ relatives, I investigate (a) how they position themselves in the post-referendum social order; (b) how their positioning has changed over the three-year period; and (c) how their positioning is negotiated with other participants during the course of a group interview. My analysis shows how two kinds of bonding phenomena emerge during interactions. The first, <i>social bonding</i>, is a discursive, ideological practice to connect the self to social groups, whereas the second, <i>interactional bonding</i>, refers to communicative developments participants create. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.p3 145 1 Section header 10 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Section III.

I argue that a close relationship between participants who rarely meet in person is an interactional achievement. My analytical foci are twofold. First, I analyze how participants repeat each other’s utterances and bodily movements such as hand gestures and facial expressions. Through what I call ‘mediated repetitions’, participants share understanding and encourage the virtual participants’ involvement in locally unfolding interaction frames. Second, I investigate how the organization of talk becomes relevant as participants maneuver webcams. I argue that the interactional efforts of coordinating repetitions and converting webcam capabilities into new interactional modalities contribute to the creation of a sense of bonding across geographical boundaries. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.08bus 173 196 24 Chapter 12 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Chapter 8.

Bringing to bear on these data a microethnographic methodology, I show some of the functions of laughter deployed by the participants. In particular, the findings of the analyses indicate that, in my data, laughter was used both to indicate the frame or tenor of the interaction, to display an orientation to and interactionally co-constitute a moral order, and to negotiate and coordinate joint participation in a next course of action. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.09lef 197 214 18 Chapter 13 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Chapter 9.

Interpreting the script means for them that each line of the script becomes an underlying pattern to which extra elements (embodied behaviors, broader contextual elements) can be connected in order to build the multimodal performances of interactional bonds. In this paper I focus on how participants build two different interpretations of the same segment of the script, building two kinds of interactional bonds among addressed and un-addressed recipients. The goal of this paper is to understand how the actors <i>embody the script</i> and <i>create the performance of interactional bonds</i> by relying on the script as an underlying pattern. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.p4 215 1 Section header 14 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Section IV.

These deictics also serve a marketing purpose by constituting a bond between company and customer and encouraging further patronage. English emails adopt a relatively casual stance, with positive politeness markers such as bare imperatives functioning to invite future customer engagement. Pronominal reference also predominates, whereas in Japanese, recurring combinations of nominal forms with polite prefixes and honorific or humble polite predicates enable a company to express appreciation for a customer’s patronage, acknowledge benefits received, and indirectly index a deferent stance consonant with customer expectations for online vendors. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.11tak 239 264 26 Chapter 16 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Chapter 11.

Special attention is paid to <i>intertextuality</i> based on Bakhtinian notion of dialogism, which affords speech participants to create stances and utterances that <i>resonate</i> with the stances and utterances of the prior text, and transform them into something innovative, particular, and socioculturally meaningful in the present text. I will argue that, in addition to language form and meaning, speaker agency as instantiated in creativity and cooperation in naming, is also coordinated and shaped through conversational play. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.12wet 265 281 17 Chapter 17 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Chapter 12.

Wetzel Portland State University 20 intertextuality 20 Japanese advertising 20 semiotics 20 word play 01 Intertextuality, particularly word play, is a common feature of Japanese advertising. This article argues that intertextuality is a mechanism for accomplishing the ultimate goal of marketers – to bond with consumers. Reference to texts that consumers know creates an insider narrative space; consumers share this space by virtue of being “in on” the reference. Intertextual references are accompanied by additional text and visual signs (colors, natural phenomena associated with the seasons) that amplify and diffuse the message. Ultimately, the marketer’s world merges with the consumer’s through the medium of advertising. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.loc 283 285 3 Chapter 18 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">List of contributors</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.314.ai 287 288 2 Miscellaneous 19 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02"> Author Index</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.314.si 289 292 4 Miscellaneous 20 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02"> Subject Index</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.314.index 287 289 3 Miscellaneous 21 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02"> Author Index</TitleText> 02 JBENJAMINS John Benjamins Publishing Company 01 John Benjamins Publishing Company Amsterdam/Philadelphia NL 04 20201203 2020 John Benjamins B.V. 02 WORLD 13 15 9789027207661 01 JB 3 John Benjamins e-Platform 03 jbe-platform.com 09 WORLD 21 01 00 95.00 EUR R 01 00 80.00 GBP Z 01 gen 00 143.00 USD S 736026574 03 01 01 JB John Benjamins Publishing Company 01 JB code P&bns 314 Hb 15 9789027207661 13 2020029082 BB 01 P&bns 02 0922-842X Pragmatics & Beyond New Series 314 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Bonding through Context</TitleText> <Subtitle textformat="02">Language and interactional alignment in Japanese situated discourse</Subtitle> 01 pbns.314 01 https://benjamins.com 02 https://benjamins.com/catalog/pbns.314 1 B01 Risako Ide Ide, Risako Risako Ide University of Tsukuba 2 B01 Kaori Hata Hata, Kaori Kaori Hata Osaka University 01 eng 299 vii 291 LAN009030 v.2006 CFG 2 24 JB Subject Scheme LIN.ANTHR Anthropological Linguistics 24 JB Subject Scheme LIN.DISC Discourse studies 24 JB Subject Scheme LIN.JAPANESE Japanese linguistics 24 JB Subject Scheme LIN.PRAG Pragmatics 24 JB Subject Scheme LIN.SOCIO Sociolinguistics and Dialectology 06 01 This book examines the linguistic and interactional mechanisms through which people bond or feel bonded with one another by analyzing situated discourse in Japanese contexts.

The first, <i>social bonding</i>, is a discursive, ideological practice to connect the self to social groups, whereas the second, <i>interactional bonding</i>, refers to communicative developments participants create. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.p3 145 1 Section header 10 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Section III.

I argue that a close relationship between participants who rarely meet in person is an interactional achievement. My analytical foci are twofold. First, I analyze how participants repeat each other’s utterances and bodily movements such as hand gestures and facial expressions. Through what I call ‘mediated repetitions’, participants share understanding and encourage the virtual participants’ involvement in locally unfolding interaction frames. Second, I investigate how the organization of talk becomes relevant as participants maneuver webcams. I argue that the interactional efforts of coordinating repetitions and converting webcam capabilities into new interactional modalities contribute to the creation of a sense of bonding across geographical boundaries. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.08bus 173 196 24 Chapter 12 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Chapter 8.

Bringing to bear on these data a microethnographic methodology, I show some of the functions of laughter deployed by the participants. In particular, the findings of the analyses indicate that, in my data, laughter was used both to indicate the frame or tenor of the interaction, to display an orientation to and interactionally co-constitute a moral order, and to negotiate and coordinate joint participation in a next course of action. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.09lef 197 214 18 Chapter 13 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Chapter 9. Creating interactional bonds during theatrical rehearsals</TitleText> <Subtitle textformat="02">An interactional approach of the documentary method of interpretation</Subtitle> 1 A01 Augustin Lefebvre Lefebvre, Augustin Augustin Lefebvre Sorbonne Nouvelle Paris 3 University 20 addressed and un-addressed recipients 20 documentary method of interpretation 20 multimodality 20 script 20 theatrical rehearsals 01 The process of embodying a theatrical script for organizing the performance of an interaction among fictional characters and displaying interactional bonds on stage depends on the way the participants (the director and the actors) <i>interpret</i> the script. Interpreting the script means for them that each line of the script becomes an underlying pattern to which extra elements (embodied behaviors, broader contextual elements) can be connected in order to build the multimodal performances of interactional bonds. In this paper I focus on how participants build two different interpretations of the same segment of the script, building two kinds of interactional bonds among addressed and un-addressed recipients. The goal of this paper is to understand how the actors <i>embody the script</i> and <i>create the performance of interactional bonds</i> by relying on the script as an underlying pattern. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.p4 215 1 Section header 14 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Section IV.

These deictics also serve a marketing purpose by constituting a bond between company and customer and encouraging further patronage. English emails adopt a relatively casual stance, with positive politeness markers such as bare imperatives functioning to invite future customer engagement. Pronominal reference also predominates, whereas in Japanese, recurring combinations of nominal forms with polite prefixes and honorific or humble polite predicates enable a company to express appreciation for a customer’s patronage, acknowledge benefits received, and indirectly index a deferent stance consonant with customer expectations for online vendors. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.11tak 239 264 26 Chapter 16 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Chapter 11.

Special attention is paid to <i>intertextuality</i> based on Bakhtinian notion of dialogism, which affords speech participants to create stances and utterances that <i>resonate</i> with the stances and utterances of the prior text, and transform them into something innovative, particular, and socioculturally meaningful in the present text. I will argue that, in addition to language form and meaning, speaker agency as instantiated in creativity and cooperation in naming, is also coordinated and shaped through conversational play. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.12wet 265 281 17 Chapter 17 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">Chapter 12.

Wetzel Portland State University 20 intertextuality 20 Japanese advertising 20 semiotics 20 word play 01 Intertextuality, particularly word play, is a common feature of Japanese advertising. This article argues that intertextuality is a mechanism for accomplishing the ultimate goal of marketers – to bond with consumers. Reference to texts that consumers know creates an insider narrative space; consumers share this space by virtue of being “in on” the reference. Intertextual references are accompanied by additional text and visual signs (colors, natural phenomena associated with the seasons) that amplify and diffuse the message. Ultimately, the marketer’s world merges with the consumer’s through the medium of advertising. 10 01 JB code pbns.314.loc 283 285 3 Chapter 18 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02">List of contributors</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.314.ai 287 288 2 Miscellaneous 19 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02"> Author Index</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.314.si 289 292 4 Miscellaneous 20 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02"> Subject Index</TitleText> 10 01 JB code pbns.314.index 287 289 3 Miscellaneous 21 <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText textformat="02"> Author Index</TitleText> 02 JBENJAMINS John Benjamins Publishing Company 01 John Benjamins Publishing Company Amsterdam/Philadelphia NL 04 20201203 2020 John Benjamins B.V. 02 WORLD 08 680 gr 01 JB 1 John Benjamins Publishing Company +31 20 6304747 +31 20 6739773 bookorder@benjamins.nl 01 https://benjamins.com 01 WORLD US CA MX 21 42 22 01 02 JB 1 00 95.00 EUR R 02 02 JB 1 00 100.70 EUR R 01 JB 10 bebc +44 1202 712 934 +44 1202 712 913 sales@bebc.co.uk 03 GB 21 22 02 02 JB 1 00 80.00 GBP Z 01 JB 2 John Benjamins North America +1 800 562-5666 +1 703 661-1501 benjamins@presswarehouse.com 01 https://benjamins.com 01 US CA MX 21 1 22 01 gen 02 JB 1 00 143.00 USD
