WENDY L. BOWCHER, SUN YAT-SEN UNIVERSITYHUMOUR IN THE COURTROOM: ISSUES IN MAPPING CULTURALLY-SPECIFICINTEGRATED REGISTERS IN CONTEXTUALISATION SYSTEM NETWORKSSystem networks are a means of representing paradigmatic organisation and are a key tool forexploring agnation (Matthiessen et al. 2010: 212). They set out potential choices in a specifiedenvironment. While there are several system networks developed for features at differentlinguistic strata in Systemic Functional Linguistic theory, so far, we are yet to developcomprehensive system networks at the level of context. When developing descriptions of anytheoretical stratum and in validating the features of a stratum, the principle espoused inSystemic Functional Linguistic (SFL) theory is the trinocular perspective of considering strata‘from above’, ‘from below’, and ‘from around’ (Halliday and Matthiessen 2004: 31). However,as Hasan points out, with respect to the stratum of context, ‘there is no recognized stratumabove the stratum of context’, and certainly none in which there is a ‘clearly articulated set ofabstractions’ to which we can appeal (Hasan 1995: 267-268). Thus, in SFL theory, the ‘mosttheoretically developed means of arriving at specific context types’ is to consider the stratumof context ‘from below’, ‘by examining those semantic units called texts’ (Hasan 1995: 268).Using the existing contextualization system networks (Butt 2004; Hasan 1999, 2009), and inparticular those developed for Field, this paper presents an analysis of a specific instance oflanguage in use taken from a movie belonging to the genre of comedy. The instance oflanguage use itself realizes two distinct registers: a register of the courtroom and a register ofhumour. An analysis of the text highlights features of its motivating context, and indicates howthese two registers are integrated within the one ‘spatio-temporal’ multimodal situation.Issues regarding how to represent this integration within a context system network are raised,with particular attention to the system network for Field. But while the focus in thispresentation is on features of Field, because the parameters of context are interdependentand configure in a specific way within a specific context of situation, a consideration of therelationship between Field, Tenor, and Mode is also necessary. Furthermore, it is argued thatthe configuration of Field, Tenor, and Mode in this situation is culturally specific, suggestingthat such a configuration may not be appropriate to other cultural contexts. Thus animportant outcome of this presentation is that it both sheds light on and raises issues withregard to how one may account for the cultural specificities of humour within the frameworkof context of situation.ReferencesButt, D.
