摘要
时间来自何方?时间与物体移动有关,典型事例是太阳运动。这是汉语时间演化的基本事实和具身认知。基于此理念,我们提出事件空时同体说:事件由动体及空间和时间组成,它们同存共变,形成事件空间-时间同体线。由此假说可推导出两类事件-时间关联及其在汉语中的表现:事-时转喻关联(可为空-时词义衍生和时-事应景联通提供转喻理据)和事-时非转喻关联(可为语句和语篇中的事-时关联提供解释)。本研究在事件大视野中考察空间和时间,证明事件与时间的关联,也探明了时间转喻的基础性。
Where does time come from? Time is related to object motion,and a typical example is the movement of the sun.This is the basic fact and embodied cognition in relation to Chinese time evolution.Based on this notion,we propose the hypothesis of Event Spatiotemporal Hermaphroditism:an event is composed of moving bodies,space and time,which co-exist and co-change,forming a line of event spatiotemporal hermaphroditism.From this hypothesis,we can infer two types of relevance of event to time and their expression in Chinese:the metonymic one(which provides metonymic motivation for the lexical meaning derivation of time from space and the contextual connection between time and event) and the non-metonymic one(which provides explanation for the event-time connection in sentence and discourse).Examining space and time in a panoramic view of event,this study proves the connection between event and time,and ascertains the fundamentality of time metonymy.
