Abstract

This paper attempts to analyze the discourse between Chu Long and Empress Dowager Zhao based on the pragmatic theories including the cooperative principle, the conversational implicature, the politeness principle, and the speech act theory, so that we can use an approximately scientific method to reinterpret the personality traits of the two main characters in Chu Long Persuades Empress Dowager Zhao, and deeply appreciate Chu Long’s superb art of communication, which provides a good example for the superior-subordinate communication in the real life.
