通感认知新论

近年来，国内有学者运用认知语言学概念隐喻和概念整合理论，结合相关神经学、心理学等研究成果，指出通感是作为人类重要认知方式的概念隐喻。而Rakova和Seitz等学者则对目前认知语言学通感隐喻观提出质疑和反驳。我们综合以Lakoff、Rakova、Seitz为代表的通感观及相应哲学观，提出通感的认知语言学新主张，认为通感隐喻是天赋和体验，感官之间的相似与差异，以及地域、文化和认知反作用等因素共同作用的结果。

Recently, some Chinese scholars have proposed a cognitive linguistic approach to synaesthesia, considering synaesthesia as a kind of conceptual metaphor,an important way of human cognition,by applying theories of Conceptual Metaphor and Conceptual Blending,along with relevant research results of neurology and psychology, etc. Meanwhile,Scholars such as Rakova and Seitz presented doubts and rejection of the current cognitive linguistic explanation about synaesthetic metaphors. Referring to the views concerning synaesthesia and corresponding philosophy respectively held by Lakoff, Rakova, and Seitz,this paper puts forward a modified cognitive linguistic perspective on synaesthesia - it is the influence of both innateness and bodily experience, both sensory similarities and differences,and the factors of geographic areas,culture,and cognitive counteractive that results in the production of synaesthesia.
