修辞学的基本概念及其学科品性——兼论指导理论研究的“系统原则”和“实践原则”

文章首先对修辞学基本概念作出界定，然后就修辞学学科品性阐明看法，最后论述了从事理论研究必须遵循的两条原则，即“系统原则”和“实践原则”。在讨论过程中指出，修辞学界许多争论肇始于“研究对象”一语的多义性，论及研究对象必须注意“目标对象”、“资源对象”和“参考对象”的区分。

On the Basic Concepts and Subject Character of Rhetoric:

This paper introduces the definitions of the basic concepts of rhetoric before it talks about the subject character of rhetoric on the basis of the definitions, then, it points out that a theoretical study should be guided by ＂system principle＂ and ＂practice principle＂ all the time. Finally, a lot of arguments in the rhetoric circles originated from the polysemy of the study object. Efforsts must be made to differentiate the aim object, resource object and reference object.
