摘要
英国作家福尔斯深受萨特存在主义哲学的影响,其《法国中尉的女人》作为英国后现代元小说的代表作品,其中的存在主义思想备受评论关注。但作品的语言特征如何展现了存在主义思想的认知理据尚无人探究。本文试图借助认知语言学的概念隐喻理论探讨文本中关于时间的概念隐喻。本文认为,小说文本中叙述者的用语和人物的语言都蕴含着TIME IS SPACE这一概念隐喻,从而在客观真实的时间观之外又建构了人类感知的时间观,即存在主义哲学家萨特所主张的现象学时间观。
Fowles is an author greatly influenced by Sartrean existentialism.As a masterpiece of British postmodern metafiction,his The French Lieutenant＇s Woman attracts great attention with its existential thoughts.However,no criticism has approached the linguistic forms of the novel from a cognitive perspective yet in the exploration of its existentialism.This paper attempts to investigate the conceptual metaphor on time in the novel with the help of the conceptual metaphor theory.It exposes that the TIME IS SPACE metaphor permeates both the narrator＇s and the character＇s language,establishing a constructed view of time beyond the cosmological view of time,a view in line with Sartrean existential phenomenological view of time.
