“修辞构式”的理论意蕴与内在矛盾

Theoretical Implication and Internal Contradiction of Rhetoric Construction Research

"修辞构式"研究是近年来中国修辞学界提出并进行研究的热点之一。现有的修辞构式原本脱胎于"语法构式",其着力点是词项的破格用法,"语法构式-修辞构式-新的语法构式"是它的演绎路径。"修辞构式"如此的逻辑推演可以说是语法学"语法构式"的修辞学补充。现代修辞学中的修辞意味着"为了实现某种交际意图而对语言进行运用的过程本身",此定义已将"言语行为"作为修辞核心推到了现代修辞学研究的前台,同时也将传统观念中的修辞从语言的"辅助的、依附的地位"直接拉升到了"本体的地位"。在这一意义上,如何建构主要服务于修辞核心问题的"修辞构式",而不是聚焦于为潜在语法学研究服务的"修辞的语法构式",应当成为现代修辞学研究的着力点之一。

Rhetoric Construction has gradually become one of hotspots in the rhetoric research field in recent years.The existing rhetoric construction is originally derived from the grammatical construction,its focus is the uncommon use of word items,and it serves grammar,explains grammar too.The grammatical construction-rhetoric construction-new grammatical construction is its deductive path.It might be considered as the complement of the rhetoric study of grammatical construction.The rhetoric in modern rhetoric studies means the process of using language in order to achieve some communicative intention’,which means the speech act has become the core of modern rhetoric research,and the rhetoric in traditional concepts is directly extended from the auxiliary and dependent status of language to the status of thing-in-itself.In this sense,how to construct the rhetorical structure which mainly serves the core of rhetoric,instead of merely serving for the study of linguistic studies should be one of the focuses of modern rhetoric studies.
