标记理论对转类修辞的阐释作用

The Interpretation of the Markedness Theory for Transferred Epithet

转类修辞是一种超常规搭配方式,运用标记理论可对该修辞进行充分阐释。从语义层次来看,构成成分在语义之间的冲突即为一种标记性;从语用层次来看,转类修辞是在特定语境下词语的重新组合,其标记性就在其语境中得以体现。

The transferred epithet is a way of super-conventional collocation. The markedness theory can be used to interpret the figure of speech. From the view of semantics, the conflict existed between the semantic components is a phenomenon of markedness; from the view of pragmaties, the transferred epithet is the recombination of the words under the definite context in which the markedness is realized.
