摘　　要：国内外学者对称赞语的研究不胜枚举,但多从语用角度特别是礼貌理论出发考察不同背景下称赞应答策略的差异。这种以礼貌理论为基础的研究范式预先设定了互相合作的交际双方、过度简化了"称赞""礼貌"等核心概念,有一定的局限性。称赞行为无论从传统上还是从实际上看都表现出诸多修辞特征。修辞学视角下的称赞语研究关注称赞行为发生的修辞形势、称赞者的动机,以修辞效果为根本出发点,深化了传统语用学视角下的称赞语研究。这对进一步探索语用与修辞在日常话语研究中的关系和作用有一定的意义。Scholars at home and abroad have done a great number of researches on complimenting acts, but their methodologies are unanimously pragmatic,especially politeness-based：attention is mostly paid to the different strategies for making compliment responses whereby the linguistic,cultural or gender differences be-tween the speakers could be overcome. The politeness-based paradigm is limited for its presupposition of two cooperative parties and a reduction of some key terms like compliment and politeness. Complimenting acts are rhetorical in tradition and in practice. Laying emphasis on the rhetorical situation,rhetor’s motives and rhetorical effects,the study of compliments from the rhetorical perspective can not only enrich the pragmatic approach to compliment but also give some significance to the investigation of the relationship between prag-matics and rhetoric in language use.
