音乐形态分析的文化语言学视角

The Cultural Linguistic Perspective for the Analysis of Musical Morphology

文化语言学是20世纪末形成的新学科,它区别于以往的描写语言学,而关注语言与思维、语言与社会、语言与存在、语言与文化的多面向的阐释问题。它的兴起伴随着哲学、人类学的转向以及对文化的关注,倡导从文化的视角观察语言的运用问题,即从语形的视角转向到语用的视角。中国当下的音乐形态学研究延续了19世纪的科学工业化时代所形成的现代性分析机制,主要表现在机械观的分析量化观念,并运用数学、几何学逻辑建构宏大的形态叙事理论。这种研究模式与描写语言学的语形研究具有相似性,缺失了对语用维度的关注。当下的音乐形态分析应当接通人文学科的整体视野,从语言学的视角反思音乐形态研究的内部问题。

Cultural linguistics is a new discipline established in the late 20 thcentury. It differentiates itself with traditional linguistics as it concerns multi-aspects issues relating to language and minds,language and society,language and existence,and language and culture. Its emergence is along with the cultural turn in philosophy and anthropology so that it advocates to observe the use of language from cultural perspective,meaning a transformation from morphology to pragmatics. Chinese present musical morphological study continues the modern analytical mechanism developed in the 19 thcentury scientific industrialization,which is characterized by the quantitative concept in the mechanical perspective,as well as macro morphological narrative theory constructed with mathematics and geometrical logics. This mode is similar to morphological study in linguistics,losing sight on the pragmatic dimension. Current musical morphological analysis should connect with the whole humanistic disciplines so as to rethink the inner issues in musical morphological research in linguistic perspective.
