《红星照耀中国》中的“红色中国”

The Image of "Red China" in Red Star over China

埃德加.斯诺进入苏区后,"红色"在其个人词库中的语义内涵发生了很大转变。这一点直接反映在《红星照耀中国》一书中"红色中国"形象的形成与变化过程上。对这一个案的研究,将充分展现"前理解"和词汇语义弹性在形象建构过程中的复杂作用。

The connotations of the word ＂red＂ in Edgar Snow＇s personal vocabulary changed a lot when he used it before and after his visit to the Red China, the special areas controlled by the CPC before the Liberation in 1949. The word ＂red＂ influenced the construction and diversification of the image of ＂Red China＂ in Red Star over China directly. The study of this case will show the complex functions of pre-understanding and flexibility of the connotation of words in the process of image constructing.
