摘　　要：面子与礼貌言语在维系和谐的社会人际交往中扮演着重要角色,不同的社会文化反映不同的面子观与礼貌言语表征。中国文化自古就有众多关于面子的表达,如"颜""脸""面""相""貌"等。"礼貌"一词既关乎礼仪(即"礼"),也关乎面子(即"貌")。在当今全球化的时代,对面子和礼貌行为的研究有助于促进中西方不同文化背景下社会人际互动模式的理解,减少或消除跨文化冲突。基于社会语用学视角,着重考察中国文化语境下的面子与礼貌言语行为研究,同时兼论西方的面子与礼貌行为理论。其次,对两项主要的"面子"研究范式,即理论建构与实证研究,进行批评分析。最后,基于文献研究,对中国文化语境下的面子与礼貌理论的发展进行分析概括,论述未来潜在的研究方向。Face and politeness language behaviors are important for human interaction.There are different meanings and interpretations on face conception in different sociocultural backgrounds.This study takes a critical perspective to review face and politeness theories in Chinese culture and society,meanwhile Western face theories are also examined.The paper initially examines the studies of face and politeness in Chinese cultural context,and then makes a brief investigation to Western theoretical and practical contributions.Subsequently,a critical analysis to research methods(i.e.theoretical construction and empirical research) in studies of face and politeness in Chinese context is made so as to identify their pros and cons.Finally,by adopting literature survey,the theoretical development of Chinese face and politeness studies in socio-pragmatics are discussed and potential research directions are further pointed out.In the globalization era,it is helpful to reduce or remove cross-cultural conflicts between China and Western societies when we have a deep understanding on the mechanism of face and(im)politeness behaviors in Chinese and Western cultural contexts.
