框架语义视角下中美贸易战话语的历时比较分析

Diachronic Contrastive Analysis on China-US Trade War Discourses from Perspective of Frame Semantics

本文在框架语义学(frame semantics)视角下对中美贸易战话语进行了历时比较和批评认知分析。2019年6月底至8月底短短两个月内,中美贸易战形势发生了激烈变化,我们将此阶段中方关于中美贸易战的话语建立语料库作为研究对象,根据事件变化时期特征,将6月底至7月底话语语料库计为语料库1,而将8月份话语计为语料库2。我们用AntConc 3.4.3分别检索话语关键词“trade”的主要搭配词,以Shroter&Storjohann(2015)所修正的事件框架语义范畴作为模板标准,探究中美贸易战话语在不同局势变化下对贸易事件框架话语构建的策略差异并深入分析其中的原因和动机。

The article makes a diachronic contrastive and critical cognitive analysis on China-US war discourses from the perspective of frame semantics.Within a very short period from the late June to the late August,2019,rapid changes have taken place in the China-US trade war situations.With China’s discourses on China-US trade war during this period serving as data for the corpora we build and research object,we mark the discourse corpus covering the period from late June to late July as Corpus 1while the corpus of August as Corpus 2 in terms of period characteristics of the event change.After searching the main collocations of the discourse keyword"trade"respectively by virtue of Ant Conc 3.4.3,we explore the diverging strategies of discourse constructions within the trade event frame in different situations and analyze the underlying causes and motivations by means of the template standard of Shr9ter&Storjohann’s(2015)refined semantic categories of event frame.
