摘要
本文以模因论为基础,解析了隐喻的认知功能,并且探讨了模因机制在隐喻概念的形成、发展和传播的作用。根据模因论的观点,隐喻可以像基因那样得到继承,像病毒那样传播、变异,通过复制、进化过程,最终构成新的隐喻模因复合体。此模式构成了隐喻的认知理据基础。
This article is based on the theory of memetics. It mainly analyzes the cognitive function of the metaphor. It also discusses the effect and function of the memetic mechanism on the formation, development and transmission of metaphors. It concludes that metaphors can be inherited like a gene and spread and mutate like a virus; the memetic metaphor is eventually formed in this process.
