隐喻的映射机制

隐喻的映射过程是一个系统的过程，是从一个认知域映射到另一个认知域的过程。在映射过程中，要么是源域与目标域之间所映射的事物之间的一对一的关联，要么是平行的多方同时响应的多项关联。结构映射过程是概念结构的映射过程。其结构再现是由事物的自身及其属性，事物之间的关系以及更高一层的关系构成的。类比映射过程则首先在两个再现情境之间建立了一种结构上的一致性，然后再进行推论的投射。结构映射过程和类比映射过程的推论都是在系统性的指导下进行的。人们并非把毫无关联的事实从源域投射到目标域，而是把能够形成完整的符合情理的关系系统的东西投射过去。

On Metaphorical Mappings

Metaphorical mappings are systematic processes during which experiences are mapped from one domain to another. The processes themselves are concerned with either one-to-one correspondence between the mapped elements in the source and target, or parallel connectivity, in which the arguments of corresponding predicates also correspond. The existence of structured representations is made up of objects and their properties, relations between objects, and higher-order relations between relations. The analogical ...
