文本互文的心理现实性的思考

Analysis of Intertextual Mental Reality

互文性是一种新型的文本观。它不仅是文本的普遍存在方式,也是语言的普遍存在方式。它依赖于人的体验,具有其存在的心理现实性。Langacker认知语法以研究语言的心理现实性为目标,对语言现象做出了解释。认知语法中的语法单位层级性可以解释互文本与成分文本的层级关系;合价关系和情景语境可以解释成分文本生成复合文本的潜在机制以及文本之间的动态网络关系;焦点调整理论可以用来解释不同阅读主体对文本形成的无限识解。从心理现实性的角度理解互文性可以使互文性理论更加系统化。

Intertextuality is the ubiquitous feature of texts as well as of language. It depends on humans＇ experience and thus possesses the property of mental reality. Langacker＇s cognitive grammar is a systemic theory accounting for language phenomena from the perspective of mental reality. Langacker＇s hierarchical concept pertaining to grammatical units aids the understanding of the hierarchical relation between composite and component texts; his concepts of valence relations and situational contexts aid the understanding of the mechanism underlying the production of a composite text and the dynamic relations among texts; further, his focal adjustment aids the understanding of the phenomenon of text endless construals from different reading subjects. The explanation of intertextuality based on Langacker＇s cognitive grammar makes intertextuality theory more systemic.
