语法隐喻的认知语言学研究

语法隐喻率先是由系统功能语言学派的创始人韩礼德提出的。语法隐喻主要是指用一种语法手段来代替另一种语法手段来表达某一既定意义的语言现象,所以韩礼德(1994)将语法隐喻称为"相同的所指,不同的能指"。语法隐喻系统内呈现了概念隐喻,人际隐喻和语篇隐喻三大形式。为了更好地阐明和解读语法隐喻的价值,本文拟从认知语言学的角度出发,基于其中的心理扫描过程,原型理论和象似性来研究功能语言学中的语法隐喻现象(只涉及概念隐喻和人际隐喻),以期揭示它的认知理据和发挥其语用功能。

The Research of Grammatical Metaphor Based on Cognitive Linguistics

It is Halliday who first put forward grammatical metaphor. Grammatical metaphor refers to a langue phenomenon that a given meaning is realized by one grammatical expression replacing another one, so Halliday（1994） defined grammatical metaphor as ＂the same signified and the different signifiers＂. In the system of grammatical metaphor, there are ideational metaphor, interpersonal metaphor as well as textual metaphor. In order to elaborate its value, this paper, based on mental scanning process, prototype theory and iconicity, intends to study the grammatical metaphor, in hope of revealing its cognitive motivations.
