语境线索模式探索

A Tentative Exploration of a Model of Contextual Cues

基于Gumperz的"语境化"概念和"语境线索"理论,借助语义学、语用学、话语分析等学科的研究成果,分析语境线索的功能,认为语篇完整意义的获得是通过语篇中的语境线索激活知识框架,同时借助语境线索链的功能,运用认知和推理机制而最终获得的。在此基础上,试图通过语境线索理论的新思考,建构语境线索模式,以期更好地描写语篇意义的建构和诠释过程。

On the basis of the concept of ＂contextualization＂ and the theory of ＂contextual cues＂ by J. Gumperz and in the light of the achievements in semantics, pragmatics, and discourse analysis research, in this paper the author analyzes the functions of the contextual cues and argues that the meaning of discourse is achieved when various contextual cues trigger off the frame of knowledge and cognitive and inferential mechanisms. Here the author tries to construct a new modal of contextual cues so as to give a graphic illustration to the meaning of discourse construction and interpretation.
