关联理论下的语境观

Context with the Framework of Relevance Theory

针对传统语境观,Sperber和Wilson的关联理论提出了认知语境观。该语境观认为语境是动态的,是大脑中的一系列假设在交际过程中为了正确理解话语,听话人会从诸多假设中提取正确的选项。本文探讨了关联理论框架下的语境观及影响其选择和构建诸因素。

Cognitive context,which is proposed by Sperber Wilson in their Relevance Theory,is different from the traditional view on context.It considers context as dynamic,a psychological construct,a subset of hearer＇s assumptions about the world.The hearer selects and constructs different contexts for understanding different utterances.This paper attempts to probe into the factors that influence the selecting and constructing of cognitive context.
