章节摘录

　　Another pragmatic approach to verbal humor is to take itas a speech act.　Humor is indeed an act，　among otherattributes. Following the idea of the Speech Act Theory thatutterances are actions， verbal humor is naturally a speech act.To refer to an individual occurrence of a funny stimulus，Raskin （1985） uses the term humor act with the humorparticipants， the speaker and the hearer，　as an importantcomponent of the act. In analogy to the Speech Act Theory，Raskin （1985） even proposes a definition of the speech act ofmaking a joke.　　（2004） takes verbal humor as a speech act of amusement，which follows an entirely different principle than that of seriousdiscourse， and to be verbally humorous is to amuse withwords. Since humor is basically amusing， amusement is theuniversal and essential element in diverse forms of humorousinteractions.　With　speech　act　theory　as　the　theoreticalguideline， her study describes the speech act of amusement interms of its components and its characteristics， and groupsamusement into the category of directive speech act.　　As a speech act， verbal humor is also studied either as aface-saving act or as a face-threatening .act in the light of thePoliteness Principle （Leech 1983） and the Face Saving Theory（Brown & Levinson 1978）.
