英汉音义联系的异曲同工

从书写符号来看,英语属于表音字母文字,汉语属于表意象形文字。但是从有声语言角度来看,二者都是表达语义的语音符号系统。英语与汉语音义联系研究一直各成系统,各自为政。对两种语言的音义联系研究进行系统的对比后,相隔万里的两种语言系统呈现给我们的竟是遥相呼应的异曲同工。     

“给力”的隐喻性语义泛化及其语境意义构建

"给力"通过语义隐喻、语义抽象和语义含混三个阶段,形成最终的泛化含义。     

思想史视野中的质性研究:以方法意涵的构建为例

本文尝试从思想史视角反思质性研究方法,以揭示被结构视角遮蔽的研究过程,从而探讨一种直面内心的反思性社会科学研究方式。思想史视角强调回到文本去阐释书写者赋予研究方法以意涵的思想过程。本文以“推论”“充分必要性”与“意义”等三种方法论立场中的方法意涵构建过程为例展现这样的思想过程：方法论如何引导了对特定研究方法的选择;当方法论与现实情况存在差距时,书写者如何在原有方法论立场中发展对质性方法新的理解以捍卫方法论的合理性;书写者如何在强调与其他立场的区分中发展对方法的理解。本文由此揭示了看似相同的方法背后所蕴含的巨大意涵和实践差异。一种围绕“意涵”展开的方法知识系统将有可能被建立起来。思想史视角为反思性的质性方法知识构建提供了可以付诸实践的路径。     

洛克的政府解体论及其当代意义

“政府解体论”是洛克政府理论的重要内容,其理论基础是“论征服”、“论篡夺”、“论暴政”,分别对应政府的外部解体和内部解体。因而,这一理论在逻辑和内容上是一致的、连贯的。政府解体理论既是洛克政府理论的逻辑归宿,又是现代政府理论研究的起点,特别是对现代政府改革提供理论支撑。所以,研究洛克政府解体理论具有当代意义。     

言语意义的层次

言语的意义并非囫囵的团块,而是具有不同层次。就人们对其言语表达效果的期待以及表达策略来说,不外乎明示、暗示和寓示,因此可以把言语意义分为明示义、暗示义和寓示义三种。理解到哪一层次的意义,决定了理解的程度。     

Emerging adult identity following adolescent experiences with psychotropic medications: A retrospective study

This study examines the perceptions of mental illness identity among a group of emerging adults based on their retrospective experiences with diagnoses and psychotropic medication use during their earlier formative adolescent years. A short questionnaire was administered via online social media platforms to volunteers between the ages of 19 and 30 and who self-identified as having taken psychotropic medication between the ages of 12 and 18 (N = 46). Correlation analysis revealed that several variables were associated with a stronger illness identity, including participant’s happiness with their medication experiences, the belief that medication made them more like their “true” selves, and the belief that their diagnosis was accurate. Content analysis of participant narratives suggested themes related to discontinuation and barriers to adherence. These results contribute to the growing knowledge base around lived experiences of psychiatric medication use and suggest further study on how to advance more informed and compassionate mental health care.     

Totally tall sounds totally younger: Intensification at the socio‐semantics interface

In two social perception experiments, we explore the relationship between the social meaning and the semantic/pragmatic properties of the intensifier totally in American English. In Experiment 1, we show that totally is perceived as a more salient index of social identity categories – measured in terms of Age, Solidarity and Status attributes – when it targets a scalar dimension grounded in the speaker's attitude, as opposed to when it occurs in contexts where the scale is provided by the subsequent predicate. In Experiment 2, we show that the social indexicality of totally is even more salient in contexts in which the intensifier, by virtue of its pragmatic contribution, invites a stance of heightened proximity and convergence between the interlocutors. These results point to a principled connection between the semantic, pragmatic and personality‐based social meanings of totally, providing new insights into the dynamics whereby different layers of meaning conspire to determine what an expression ‘says’ when deployed in interaction.     

论留日“浙江潮”对中国新文学的催生意义

在中国新文学发生前后,曾涌动一股声势颇壮的留日"浙江潮",其间走出一大批对中国新文学作出重大建树的作家。这些作家从日本汲取异域新风,在新文学"前夜"已向"现代"方向发起有力的冲击,在新文学诞生阶段期其主导文学新潮的实质性意义更充分凸显,从中显示出他们对中国新文学的一种催生意义。     

汉语动词“遮”掩饰义的产生及其词义系统的演变

魏晋时动词“遮”由对物体位移的阻拦扩大为空间上对光线等的遮蔽,遮蔽义继而在唐代又引申出对事件进行隐瞒的掩饰义。语境的转换凸显了“遮”不同的概念要素,从而诱发新义。“遮”的遮蔽义宋元时已取代拦截义而在该词的词义系统中占主导地位,这与“遮”在“拦截”概念场中的败落时代上基本相当,反映了词汇的词义系统对概念场成员演变的影响。比较汉语和其它语言“拦截”概念的语义地图,可以假设“某词同时有拦截义、掩饰义蕴含该词有遮蔽义”。今人有将作掩饰义讲的“遮”释为“用贿赂去请托”的,忽视了“遮”本身的语义特征。     

黑格尔论述艺术终结的多种维度及其实质意义

从三个维度探讨黑格尔的艺术终结：即黑格尔哲学体系下艺术的终结;从艺术史的发展维度上谈艺术的终结;社会现实的维度上谈论艺术的终结;最后在此基础上探讨出黑格尔艺术终结的实质意义,即无论从哪个维度出发,黑格尔都并没有明确断言艺术终结甚至死亡的意思,只是在社会现实的维度上,黑格尔对艺术的发展确实多了少许的悲观主义,这是因为他没有正确预见艺术正是调和个人和社会矛盾的最好方式,是人“诗意的栖居在大地上”的内在需要,所以艺术不会终结,更不会死亡。
