认知文体学可以定义为从认知角度进行语篇研究的一门学科。进行认知文体学研究的理论框架很多,文章通过对图式理论、前景化理论和语篇世界理论三种理论框架内的认知文体学研究进行了简要述评后指出,认知文体学作为一门认知科学、语言学和文学之间的学科,对促进认知科学、语言学和文学的发展必将做出重要的贡献。

Cognitive stylistics can be defined as a branch of study which approaches texts from a cognitive perspective. There are numerous theoretical frameworks in which to conduct cognitive stylistic studies, and this article offers a selective review of such studies within three theoretical frameworks, namely schema theory, foregrounding theory and Text World Theory. It is contended at the end that, as an interdisciplinary study at the interface between cognitive science, linguistics and literary studies, cognitive stylistics has important contributions to make to these three fields.
