Summary
I sometimes think that Professor Maria Sifianou’s eminence in the field of linguistic politeness studies – and her total pre-eminence in the field of Greek linguistic politeness research – remain something of a surprise to her. If so, then I would like the readers of this fine volume, published in her honour, to know that this is most definitely not my fault.
