Abstract
The aim of this thesis is to analyse the application of politeness maxims and observe how they are incorporated in the conversational exchange that occurs in a unique social setting that is illustrated in the movie 12 Angry Men with special attention given to Juror#8 and the Foreman, to determine if and how they differ from other characters. Therefore, the analysis in this research is largely based on Geoffrey Leech's Politeness Principle. This paper illustrates the importance of politeness as it examines the six maxims proposed by Leech. The qualitatively studied examples were coded according to politeness maxims. The results show that politeness maxims in the speech of Juror #8 and the Foreman serve the greater goal of serving justice, rather than keeping what Leech refers to as “communicative altruism”.
Abstract (croatian)
Cilj ovog diplomskog rada je analizirati primjenu maksima uljudnosti i promotriti na koji su način uklopljeni u razgovor koji se odvija u jedinstvenom društvenom okruženju, ilustriranome u filmu 12 gnjevnih ljudi s posebnim osvrtom na porotnika br. 8 i nadzornika kako bi utvrdili razlikuju li se od ostalih likova i na koji način. Stoga, analiza se uvelike temelji na načelu uljudnosti Geoffreya Leecha. Ovaj rad ilustrira važnost uljudnosti i kvalitativni primjeri kodirani su prema maksimama uljudnosti. Rezultati pokazuju da maksime uljudnosti u govoru porotnika br. 8 i nadzornika služe višem cilju služenja pravdi, umjesto onoga što Leech naziva „komunikativnim altruizmom“.
