VIOLATED MAXIM IN THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 MOVIE
Abstract
This study is concerned with an analysis of Grice’s Cooperative Principles which
are constituted in a conversation. This research was conducted by using
qualitative method. The analysis particularly discusses the violation of maxim in
the utterances, which are described in four types. They are the maxim of quantity
maxim of quality, maxim of relation and maxim of manner. The data of this study
are the utterances of the main character in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 movie. The
utterances which contain violated maxim are identified and analyzed. The
findings show that there are 51 utterances violation of maxim in The Amazing
Spider-Man 2 movie. Those are 20 utterances (39.2%) violation of maxim relation
and it can be concluded as the dominat type violated, 16 (31.5%) for maxim of
quantity as the second largest number violated and 8 (15.6%) for the maxim of
quality. The last, those are 7 utterances (13.7%) violated maxim of manner. It
shows that the maxim of manner is the lowest number. Based on the analysis,
there are the reasons as the main backgrounds which prompt the main character
named Peter Parker to violate the maxims. The reason are to keep the secret and
change the topic.
