系统功能视阈下多模态隐喻建构及释解模式

A Constructive and Interpretive Model for Multimodal Metaphors from a Systemic Functional Perspective

本文以系统功能语言学为理论基础,探讨多模态隐喻的建构和释解模式,首先探讨了多模态隐喻的一致式和隐喻式,以及多模态隐喻产生的动因;然后,探讨了多模态隐喻的建构模式,包括多模态隐喻中的类比关系的性质,以及多模态隐喻建构中符号和语境的创新;最后提出了在多模态隐喻建构和释解中建构隐喻式内嵌语境的构想,并建立了多模态隐喻内嵌语境构建和释解框架。研究发现:多模态隐喻建构和释解的关键是在一致式和隐喻式之间建立恰当的类比关系,以及找到有效释解这种类比关系的方法。每一种多模态隐喻的产生都涉及符号和语境的创新,因此多模态隐喻最有效的建构和释解方式是在隐喻式基础上构建内嵌语境,来提高多模态隐喻建构和释解的准确度和精确性,并在此基础上选择最合适的模态或模态集合。

This article studies the model for constructing and interpreting multimodal metaphors based on the theoretical principles used within systemic functional linguistics.Firstly,it explores the congruent and the metaphorical modes of multimodal metaphors,and examines the motivations for the emergence of the metaphorical.Then,it studies the theoretical model used to construct multimodal metaphors,including the basic features of the place of analogy in multimodal metaphors,and the creation of new signs and contexts in the construction of multimodal metaphors.Finally,it proposes the idea that embedded contexts can be employed in the construction and interpretation of multimodal metaphors,and establishes a framework for constructing and interpreting embedded contexts in multimodal metaphors.The findings suggest that the key to constructing and interpreting multimodal metaphors lies in constructing an appropriate analogy between tenor and vehicle,and the effective interpretation of this analogical relationship.The emergence of each multimodal metaphor involves the creation of new signs and contexts.The most effective way to formulate and interpret the multimodal metaphor is to construct an embedded context based on the vehicle,in order to improve accuracy and comprehension in constructing and understanding the multimodal metaphor,and to choose the most appropriate modes or modal integration for realizing the multimodal metaphor.
