语义关系视角的隐性评价机制研究

Revisiting Implicit Appraisal Mechanisms from the Perspective of Semantic Relations

标记的识别是语篇评价分析过程中必不可少的环节。国内外研究者提出的隐性评价语言机制在一定程度上为之提供了依据,但是各个语言机制之间缺少联系,且对一些评价现象缺乏解释力。借鉴语义场理论和系统功能语法对语义关系的阐述,通过分析马丁等提出的隐性评价语言机制来挖掘其底层共性,指出语义关系是隐性评价语言机制的基础,进而在此基础上发现语义关系错配、责任推定、逻辑推导等机制,并探讨了语境对语义关系选择的框定作用。

The recognition of tokens is an indispensable procedure in appraisal analysis.The linguistic mechanisms of implicit appraisal proposed by researchers at home and abroad have helped to address the issue to a certain extent.However,there is still a lack of connection between the varying mechanisms,which results in the limited explanatory power to some evaluative phenomena.The Semantic Field Theory and Systemic Functional Grammar are drawn on to reveal the underlying commonality of the evaluative mechanisms put forward by James Martin and other scholars,and then it is proposed that semantic relations are the basis of linguistic mechanisms for implicit appraisal.Based on this observation,some other linguistic mechanisms, such as mismatching of semantic relations, presumption of responsibility and logical derivation, are discussed.Furthermore, semantic relations are explored in respect of their selection framed by the context.
