言语行为理论与《傲慢与偏见》中的反讽

On Speech-act Theory and Irony in Pride and Prejudice

以J.L.Austin的言语行为理论为出发点,以英国著名作家Austen的代表作之一《傲慢与偏见》为文本,从宏观上和微观上分析了其中最典型的语言特色——反讽的使用,旨在说明在进行文学研究时应用言语行为理论,有助于加深对文本主题及人物性格的认识。

This paper tries to make a tentative application of speech-act thleory to the analysis of irony in Pride and Prejudice, as the author believes that irony is the fundamental feature of the novel. The analysis is done both from a macro-angle and from a micro-angle, which demonstrates that irony of vari- ous forms in a literary work can be properly described within the frame-work of speech-act theory. Thus, it also deepens the understanding of the text as well as the characters in the novel.
