摘要
本文根据当今认知语言学对转喻的释解以及大量的例解,阐述语篇标题的转喻本质。标题的转喻性包括两个方面:一是标题和语篇宏观结构在概念上有邻近性,标题是对宏观结构在概念上的映现和突显;二是标题有时可以超越语篇宏观结构产生指向篇章外概念实体的参照点效应。本文的研究还表明,转喻研究可以超越语词和语句的层面和篇章语言学相结合;标题的转喻研究对写作理论和篇章教学而言也具有一定的应用价值。
Based on the cognitive linguistic construal of metonymy, this paper analyzes and exemplifies the metonymic nature of discourse titles that takes on two senses. For one thing, a discourse title is conceptually contiguous to the macro-structure of the discourse under the title,and the macro-struc- ture is conceptually mapped and profiled into the title following some macro-rules. For another thing,at times a discourse title may contain a cognitive ref- erence point that provides access to a target conceptual domain beyond the discourse. It is also demonstrated in this paper that study of metonymy could transcend the word and clause levels and form part of discourse linguistics. Study of discourse titles in relation to metonymy may even throw light on writing theory and discourse teaching.
