谦虚

This thesis makes a comprehensive review of the theories about culture by Samovar, Hofstede etc., the theories about face by Brown, Scollon, Ting-Toomey, Hu Sien-chin etc. and the theories about negotiation by Chinese and Western scholars. Based on these theories, the thesis proposes its main hypotheses from five aspects including the degree of concern with face, face and status, face and relationship, face and modesty and face and implicitness.

We have no common name for a mime of Sophron or Xenarchus and a Socratic Conversation; and we should still be without one even if the imitation in the two instances were in trimeters or elegiacs or some other kind of verse--though it is the way with people to tack on 'poet' to the name of a metre, and talk of elegiac-poets and epic-poets, thinking that they call them poets not by reason of the imitative nature of their work, but indiscriminately by reason of the metre they write in.
