句际关系研究的现状和前景

句际关系属于话语语言学的研究范畴,主要讨论连贯性的话语中句子与句子之间的相互关系及其连接手段,是一种超句法分析.在国外,这方面研究的最大成就者可推英国系统功能学派的代表人物M.A.K.Halliday;国内的句际关系研究表现在两方面一是对汉语本体的研究,包括汉语语法的复句研究与句群研究,二是由国外话语研究所推动的国内的相关研究.如何将西方话语理论和汉语本土理论相结合,深入汉语话语的实际中去进行全方位、多角度、多方法的研究是汉语句际研究面临的重要问题之一.

The Current Situation and the Perspective of the Study on Intersentence

The study of intersentence is concerned about the field of textlinguistics,mainly discussing the relationships between sentences or clauses and cohesive methods in the continuous discourse,such as sentence order,structural arrgngement,coherence and so on.The study of textlinguistics has reached some results both at home and abroad, with Halliday as the most outstanding in this field.In China the research range is mainly concerned about the Chinese compound sentence and the Chinese sentence group.This article argues that the all-round,multidimensional and many-sided research on Chinese intersentence,integrating the external theory on discourse analysis into the internal one is the key step to be taken in this field.
