摘要随着语言学在世界范围内的发展，人们对于语言学的研究更加深入，许多国内外著名语言学家对此做出极大贡献。语言学的重要之处也体现在交流中，从语用角度来看，笑话作为一种特殊的信息交流方式，受到越来越多的语言研究者的重视。本文以格莱斯的合作原则为理论基础分析英文笑话产生的生成机制。旨在揭示通过违反合作原则生成幽默效果的机理。在英文笑话中，人们故意违反合作原则，听者通过其中的会话含义来感知它。本文研究运用会话合作原则理论分析不同英文笑话违背合作原则后的深层意义，以更好地理解笑话并达到幽默的目的。根据格莱斯的合作原则为理论框架，本文选取近年来流行的英文笑话作为研究对象，对英文笑话产生的幽默效果进行探讨和分析。通过定性定量和案例分析的方法分析各个笑话是如何通过违反合作原则而生成的。研究得出，在合作原则的四条准则中，英语笑话经常使用数量准则（42.22％）和方式准则（28.89％），其次是关系准则（16.67％）和质量准则（12.22％）。合作原则的违背是语言艺术。笑话使用这种方法产生一种奇特的效果，使对话更有趣。英文笑话的生成机理就是通过违反合作原则使其在对话中出现不合作现象，在对话中产生深层含义，产生幽默。因此我们可以得出结论，大多数笑话都违反了合作原则，从而达到意料之外和幽默的目的并且令人心情愉悦的效果。关键词:英文笑话；幽默；合作原则；违反燕山大学本科生毕业论文摘要AbstractWiththedevelopmentoflinguisticsintheworld,peoplehavemorein-depthstudyoflinguistics.Manyfamouslinguistsathomeandabroadhavemadegreatcontributionstothis.Theimportanceoflinguisticsisalsoreflectedincommunication.Fromtheperspectiveofpragmatics,jokesasaspecialwayofinformationexchange,isvaluedbymoreandmorelanguageresearchers.ThisthesisexaminesthehumorofEnglishjokesbyusingCooperativePrinciple(CP)ofGrice.ItaimstopointoutthattheviolationofCooperativePrinciplecanproducethehumor.InthoseEnglishjokes,peopledeliberatelyviolatethecooperativeprinciple,thelistenerperceiveitwithconversationalimplicatureincommunication.ThisresearchanalysesthedeepmeaningofdifferentEnglishjokesinviolationofcooperativeprinciplebyusingthetheoryofconversationalcooperativeprincipleinpragmatics.Thuspeoplecanunderstandthejokesbetterandachievethegoalofhumor.BasedonH.P.Grice’scooperativeprincipleasthetheoreticalframe,thispaperchoosetheEnglishjokeswhichispopularinrecentyearsastheresearchobjecttodiscussandanalysethemagicaleffectofEnglishjokes.ItusesquantitativeandqualitativemethodandcaseanalysistoanalyzehowjokesarecausedbyviolatingCP.Itisfoundfrommystudythatinthefourmaximsofcooperativeprinciple,theEnglishjokestendtousetheMaximofQuantity(42.22%)andtheMaximofManner(28.89%)frequently,followedbytheMaximofRelation(16.67%)andtheMaximofQuality(12.22%).Theviolationofcooperativeprincipleisartoflanguage.Thejokesusethismethodtoproduceamagicaleffecttomaketheconversationmoreinteresting.ThegenerativemechanismofEnglishjokesistoviolatetheCPandcausethemtoappeardeepmeaninginthedialogueandgeneratehumor.Therefore,wecanconcludethatmostofjokesareinviolationofthecooperativeprincipletomakepeoplelaughandfeelunexpectedinordertoachievethegoalofhumor.Keywords:Englishjokes;humor;cooperativeprinciple;violationChapter1IntroductionChapter1makesabriefintroductiontothebackground,objectives,significanceandstructureofthisstudy.1.1BackgroundofthestudyAsweallknow,humorhasalwaysbeenapartofourdailylifeandcommunication,andjokesareoneofthemostvividaspectsofhumor.Ajokeisaphrase,ashortstory,oraconversationthatcanmakethespeakerandlistenerfeelfunnyorhaveasenseofhumor.Jokeisdifferentfromordinaryconversation.Itoftenviolate...
