用纯理功能解读《葛底斯堡公墓的演说》

Halliday的系统功能语法认为语篇是一个语意单位,它既可以是书面的又可以是口头的,并且在一定的语境中由句子来体现。而具体的语篇又体现着抽象的语意系统。从概念功能、人际功能、语篇功能对葛底斯堡公墓演说词的分析演示了一种科学的语篇分析法,验证了功能语法的实用性和可操作性。

Holliday＇s Functional Grammar holds that a discourse is a semantic unit which can be both written and spoken. A discourse which is realized by sentences within certain contexts at the same time realizes the abstract semantic system. This analysis on Gettyburg Address made from ideational metafunction, interpersonal meta-function, and textual recta-function displays a scientific method on discourse analysis and testifies the practicability and the applicability of Functional Grammar.
