日本文学中的女性隐喻及其社会文化内涵——基于认知社会语言学视角

Female Metaphor in Japanese Literature and Its Social and Cultural Connotation——From the Perspective of Cognitive Sociolinguistics

随着第二次女性主义浪潮的兴起,女性研究成为新的研究热点,但认知社会语言学视角下的女性研究尚不多见。因此,借助这一视角,分析日本文学中的女性隐喻及其社会文化内涵是一次有益的尝试。研究表明:日本文学中有关女性的隐喻模式主要集中在所有物、商品、植物和食物4种隐喻类型上;这些隐喻模式除了基于身体经验,还与社会文化密切相关。认知语言学的社会转向是未来的一大发展趋势,通过考察特定的隐喻不仅可以洞悉隐匿于语言背后的社会文化内涵,还能为相关领域提供新的研究路径。

With the rise of the second wave of feminism,gender studies have become a hot research topic.However,gender study from the perspective of cognitive sociolinguistics is still in its infancy.Therefore,it is a meaningful attempt to analyze the female metaphor and its social and cultural connotation in Japanese literature from this perspective.This study shows that,the female metaphors in Japanese literature mainly focus on four types:possession metaphor,commodity metaphor,plant metaphor and food metaphor.These metaphorical models are not only based on physical experience,but also closely related to sociocultural system.This paper holds that the social turn of cognitive linguistics is a major development trend in the future.By investigating specific metaphors,we can not only understand the social and cultural connotations hidden behind,but also provide a new research approach for cognitive sociolinguistics.
