介入视角下书评中作者-读者关系分析模式探索

Construing Writer-reader Relationship in Book Reviews from the Perspective of Engagement

系统功能语言学人际意义研究中关于作者与读者主体间关系的研究引起了较多的关注,然而在书评这一特殊语篇的研究中尚未系统而较深入地探讨其中作者与读者间的互动关系。本文基于评价理论的介入系统理论,提出了作者-读者关系描述模式,包括结盟、团结、中立、疏远、不结盟,构成了作者-读者关系的人际关系渐进体,指出了实现一定作者-读者关系类型的介入资源,并运用该模式在书评中进一步讨论了作者-读者关系分析网络,然后以15篇书评为例,运用语料库方法,分析了书评中的作者-读者关系,结果显示书评作者倾向于与原著作者保持中立或者团结的关系,以相对客观地引介原著;书评作者与书评读者主要通过团结实现互动。这为解读书评的策略性人际互动提供了新的阐释视角。

Among the studies on interpersonal meaning within Systemic Functional Linguistics,those on intersubjectvity between writers and readers have drawn much attention.However,there exist no studies into writer-reader relationship concerning an analysis model,especially among book reviews,in which no researches have been conducted systematically with regard to interaction between writers and readers.The paper,from the angle of Engagement system,proposes a writer-reader model,with Alignment,Solidarity,Neutrality,Alienation and Disalignment forming an interpersonal relationship cline,with which in book reviews the author construes a network of writer-reader relationship.An empirical research based on 15 book reviews has found that book review writers tend to establish a solidarity and neural relationship to introduce a book objectively and to show solidarity with the book review readers to presents some ideas.This provides a new insight into the strategic interaction between writers and readers in book reviews.
