意会偏离意向的语用能愿解释

在话语交际过程中,言者意向的表达和听者意会的生成一直是语用学研究所关注的中心议题。话语意义的生成过程是一个发于言者意向却归于听者意会的过程。在具体交际语境中,无论前者的表达,还是后者的生成,它们都是基于交际者的语用所能和语用所愿完成的,交际双方在语用能愿方面潜存的互不匹配性直接导致了听者意会对言者意向的偏离。

LANGUAGE, experience and history: 'What happened' in World War II

Sociolinguistics can contribute to our understanding of history by showing how language helps to develop and maintain a sense of a communal past. This paper focuses on the referring terms for the World War II experiences of European Jews and of Japanese Americans, as evinced through various sources of public discourse (newspapers, library cataloguing systems, book titles). The analysis of linguistic form and function combines with discussion of the social and cultural history of Holocaust awareness in the U.S. to show how the word Holocaust (as a referring term for the experience of European Jews) became part of an American lexicon. A comparison of this stable term with the variety of nouns and verbal expressions used to index the Japanese American experience allows us to more fully consider how language helps to create and preserve collective memory.
