从《正名》篇管窥荀子的社会语言学思想

A Restricted View on Xunzi’s Sociolinguistic Ideas from Zhengming

荀子的《正名》篇蕴涵着丰富的社会语言学思想,他对社会语言学的一些基本问题如语言的社会本质、语言的规范、语言的社会作用均有论述,至今仍有深刻的理论意义。

The Zhengming of Xunzi contains abundant sociolinguistic ideas. Xunzi＇s dissertations about some essential problems, such as the social essence of language, the criterion of language, the social function of language and so on, still have profound theoretical sense in modem society.
