“我们/我”与人际意义建构研究——基于突发事件新闻发布会问答环节发言人的立场性应答话语

We/I and the Interpersonal Meaning Construction:Spokespersons’ Response Discourse of Stancetaking at Crisis Press Conference Q&A

本文在系统功能语言学人际功能理论指导下探讨第一人称代词'我们/我'的人际意义建构。通过对2003年~2013年25篇突发事件新闻发布会问答环节发言人立场性应答话语中'我们/我'建构人际意义的历时分析,本文构建出'我们/我'的人际意义发展模式,旨在为发言人在突发事件新闻发布会上的语言使用提供一个思考路径。研究发现,发言人在'我们/我'的人称选择上越来越重视人际意义的建构;'我们/我'的人称选择正在趋于弱化权威、距离和'官本位',强化一致、服务和'民本位';'我们/我'的人际意义发展模式可以成为了解发言人在何种程度上建构人际意义的话语工具。

This paper carries out a longitudinal analysis of WE/I with the interpersonal meaning construction in spokespersons’response discourse of stancetaking,through investigating into 25 samples of crisis press conference Q&A during the years 2003-2013.And it further reveals a developing model of interpersonal meaning with the use of WE/I,so as to provide an instrumental reference for the language use of spokespersons at crisis press conference in their response discourse of stancetaking.The analysis shows that,spokespersons are more inclined to construct an interpersonal meaning with the use of WE/I;WE/I are becoming more solidarity-promoted,service-oriented and people-standard,but less to be authority-promoted,distance-oriented and government-standard;the developing model will provide a linguistic reference for spokespersons in their interpersonal meaning construction while stancetaking.
