语篇认知学:话语与知识的融合性研究

Discourse Epistemics:An Integrated Study of Discourse and Knowledge

话语与知识是人文科学和社会科学领域中两个关系十分密切的重要概念。但长期以来,在学界二者经常被孤立分开研究。作为话语研究领域的领军人物,van Dijk提出了知识话语研究,并开创了最新的研究领域"语篇认知学"。文章尝试从哲学认识论、认知心理学、社会心理学、文化人类学和语言学等多学科视角对van Dijk的有关话语与知识的融合研究进行解读,分析其建构的话语-认知-社会三元理论框架,助力我国话语研究学者们更好地追踪、掌握话语研究的最新理论发展动态与研究路径的变革。

Discourse and knowledge are two closely related fundamental concepts in humanities and social sciences,but they have often been treated separately.Based on the multidisciplinary perspectives of Epistemology,Cognitive Psychology,Social Psychology,Cultural Anthropology and Linguistics,this paper addresses van Dijk's integrated study of discourse with knowledge,with the focus on his construction of“discourse-cognition-society”triangular theoretical framework and the proposal of a new field “Discourse Epistemics”.A brief critique is then given,followed by suggestions on future studies.
