语料库文体学视阙下文学文本信息的解读——以Luncheon为例

Corpus-based Stylistic Study on Interpretation of Literary Text——Analysis of “Luncheon”

随着语料库语言学在语言研究领域的广泛应用,借用现代语料库技术分析文学作品中的语言使用特征,为语言学的研究提供了一种全新的视角和手段。借助Wordsmith Tools语料库索引软件的搜索功能,以英国小说家毛姆的代表作品《午宴》为语料,在语言学数据提取的基础上,通过基于词表的文本基本情况分析,基于主题词的故事情节分析,以及基于索引的修辞分析三个方面对这部作品中的语言使用特点进行数据解读,以期对于语料库的实证研究能有所借鉴。
