时间隐喻的建构及其哲学运思——以“时间就是生命”为中心

The Construction of Time Metaphor and it Sphilosophical Conception:Centered on"Time is Life"

人类对时间的隐喻表征以亲身体验为基础,基于不同体验形成了时间隐喻表征的多元化,这是人类与世界互动的结果,具有深厚的哲学基础。“以时间就是生命”为中心彰显了隐喻建构主体的心路历程,直接或间接地反映了人类存在的基本方式。时间隐喻蕴涵丰富,映射维度多样,隐喻之间以共享蕴涵建立连贯性,且每一隐喻内部具有极强的系统性特征。时间隐喻的建构基本遵循着现实—认知—语言的实现路径,但其背后始终涌动着工具—理性—价值层面的哲学运思。即时间隐喻高度依赖隐喻性思维作为组织手段,不断反映人类对世界本元和自身的探求,但同时以其对人类群体的哲学关怀作为反哺实现所应有的价值遵循。

Human’s metaphorical representation of time is based on personal experience,and the diversification of time metaphoric representation is formed based on different experiences,which is the result of human interaction with the world and has a profound philosophical foundation."Time is life"as the center highlights the mental process of the metaphorical construction subject,and directly or indirectly reflects the basic way of human existence.Temporal metaphors have rich connotations and diverse mapping dimensions.The shared connotation establishes coherence between metaphors,and each metaphor has strong systematic characteristics.The construction of time metaphor basically follows the realization path of reality-cognition-language,but behind it there is always philosophical thinking at the level of tool-rationality-value.That is to say,time metaphor highly relies on metaphorical thinking as an organizational means,and constantly reflects human beings’pursuit of the world and themselves,but at the same time,it uses its philosophical care for human groups as a feedback to realize the due value compliance.
