摘要
评价理论是二十世纪九十年代兴起的一种研究语言人际功能的理论。该理论由态度、介入和级差三方面组成，主要研究语篇中作者如何表达主观态度。近年来评价成为话语分析手段的一个重要方面，评价理论也成为系统功能语言学对人际意义研究的新词汇语法框架。本文基于评价系统的次系统——态度系统，从该系统下的“感情”、“判断”和“鉴赏”三个子体系着手，对选自《纽约时报》对刘晓波获诺贝尔和平奖的社论进行分析，揭示报纸社论评价的主观性及其映射的意识形态，从而证明态度子系统理论在分析英语社论方面的可操作性和实用性，呼吁读者以客观和批判的态度解读社论内容。
Appraisal Theory is the latest development of the study of interpersonal function in the 1990s.Consisting of three systems,i.e.Attitude,Engagement and Graduation,the Appraisal Theory explores how speakers and writers pass subjective attitudes on people generally.As appraisement has become an important aspect of discourse analysis,the Appraisal Theory is adopted as a new approach to study interpersonal meaning.Based on the three sub-systems of Affect,Judgment and Appreciation in the Attitude system,the present paper tries to reveal the subjectivity and ideology of newspaper editorials by analyzing the examples taken from New York Times on the honoring of Nobel Peace Prize to Liu Xiaobo,aiming to prove the operability and practicability of Attitude system in analyzing newspaper editorials and call for an objective and critical attitude among readers.
