图文关系视角下语文教科书插图功能考察——以统编版初中语文教科书为例

Study on the Function of Illustrations in Chinese Textbooks from the Perspective of Image-text Relations--Taking the Unified Edition of Junior High School Chinese Textbooks as an Example

插图是教科书的重要构成元素。依据马丁尼克和萨尔韦的图文关系理论对统编版初中语文教科书中插图与文本的关系进行考察,发现该版语文教科书主要以体现插图内容与文本内容一致的“图从属文—详述图文”关系类型为主,其他不同类型的图文关系兼而有之。这些图文关系为教科书增加了新的语义和文化因素,丰富了文本的表意能力。而为因应核心素养的时代吁求,未来的教科书不仅应依据不同文本的体式设计插图,而且还应彰显中华传统文化特色。

Illustrations are an important element of textbooks.This study has investigated the relationship between the illustrations and the texts in the unified edition of junior high school Chinese textbooks based on the theory of graphic relations between Martinique and Salve.It has found that this version of the Chinese textbooks mainly features the type of picture-text relationship that reflects the consistency of the content of the illustrations and the texts so that“the illustrations serve and fully describe the texts”.There are also other different types of graphic relations.These graphic and textual relationships add new semantic and cultural elements to the textbooks and enrich their expressive power.In response to the demands of the era of core literacy,future textbooks should not only design illustrations based on different text styles,but also pay attention to highlighting the characteristics of traditional Chinese culture.
