基于Wmatrix的政府报告中的概念隐喻探析

A Corpus-based Study on Conceptual Metaphor in Political Discourse

政治话语不光是表达意图和交流思想的工具,同时还是传递思维和文化深层次内涵的工具,反映了语言的本质。本文选用政府报告,从概念隐喻角度出发,根据概念隐喻中的结构隐喻、实体隐喻和方位隐喻表达式,利用语料库分析工具Wmatrix,根据隐喻识别分类,提取相关语料中的概念隐喻,探析政治语篇中的语义特点以及辨识和归纳政治话语中的主要概念隐喻,考察隐喻在政治语篇中的重要地位。研究发现,政府报告中隐喻类型和隐喻使用较为丰富。2000—2019年中国政府工作报告10种语篇有较强的语义构建意义,语义特点鲜明,既体现了政治情感态度层面的深层次表达,又体现了认知行为传播的有效途径。

Political discourse is not only a tool for communicating ideas,but also a carrier of thinking and culture.The use of metaphor in political discourse embodies the deep expression of political emotional attitude and is also an effective way to spread cognitive behaviors.From the perspective of conceptual metaphor,this paper explores the use of metaphor and ideological values in English political discourse,and adds the use of Wmatrix for semantic coding function retrieval,combining metaphorical recognition tools to extract conceptual metaphors from relevant corpus.The analysis identifies and induces the main conceptual metaphors in political discourse and examines the important position of metaphors in political discourse.
