近二十年来国内象似性研究综述

A Review on the Language Iconicity Study in China in the Recent Twenty Years

目前国内关于象似性研究多侧重于对理论的诠释,对象似性本身进行哲学思辨与综述研究的文献尚不多见。基于象似性研究现状,以近二十年来国内有关象似性研究的文章为研究对象,采用定量和定性相结合的方式进行历时分析。研究发现,国内象似性研究经历高峰期后开始进入瓶颈期,因受限于哲学基础和语言理论等原因而难以实现有效突破。与此同时,跨学科视域下的象似性研究开始受到关注并成为突破象似性研究瓶颈的方法之一。这些发现对于国内象似性研究,尤其是语用象似性研究具有一定的启发意义。

At present,on the language iconicity study in China,the researches mainly focus on how to use the iconicity principles to explain special language phenomena,while few efforts have been shed on the philosophical and comprehensive study of iconicity.Based on the collected data in China in the recent twenty years,this paper tries to study the language iconicity by using the method of the combination of quantitative and qualitative analysis.The study finds that the iconicity study in China has come into a bottleneck period because of the limitation of philosophical and linguistic theories.A multi-subject study on iconicity has been paid more and more attention to,and will provide a solution for the breakthrough of the bottleneck of the iconicity study.These findings will be helpful to the iconicity study in China and will offer furthermore guidance to the related studies on this subject.
