摘要
原型范畴理论是认知语义学的理论基础和核心。本文首先阐明该理论的相似性和原型具有主体性和不确定性,并指出语言的使用本质上就是在特定语境下使用者对事体进行范畴化和次范畴化的过程,在此基础上,再以维特根斯坦的语言观为出发点,从范畴的相似性和原型两个方面,阐明范畴的构建不只是在主体自身完成的,还必须通过主体间的交往才能真正实现,具有主体间性。
Prototype theory is the theoretical basis for cognitive semantics. This paper asserts that resemblance and prototype pertaining to the theory are characterized by subjectivity and indeterminacy,and that the use of language is essentially the speaker's on-the-spot categorization and subcategorization of objects or events in a given context. In line with Wittgenstein's view of language,this paper argues that categorization via resemblance and prototype must be realized through interpersonal communications,i.e.,through intersubjectivity,not just subjectivity.
