摘要
本文以修辞隐喻观为起点,以认知隐喻理论为框架,重点分析通感的认知过程和特点:作为隐喻的一种,通感在本质上属于不同感知域之间在语义层面的相互投射,反映在语言中通常表现为低级感知域的词汇修饰、限制高级感知域的词汇。与隐喻一样,通感已超越了词汇、句子层面的修饰功能,成为人类认知世界的工具,在重塑人类经验、重构社会现实过程中起着重要的作用。
Based on the theory of cognitive metaphor, the present paper first talks about rhetorical metaphor and then focuses on the analysis of the cognitive process of synaesthesia. It proves that the nature and mechanism of synaethesia can be clearly embodied in this process： the formation of synaesthesia is actually a process of projecting （or mapping） at the semantic level among different perceptive domains. In language use, words from senior perceptive domains are modified and limited by the words from junior perceptive domains. Like metaphor, synaesthesia has transcended its rhetoric function and become a cognitive tool for human beings to realize and reshape the real world.
