论希利斯·米勒的解构修辞

On the Rhetoric of Deconstructionism in J. Hillis Miller

美国著名解构主义文论家希利斯·米勒对于修辞极为重视。他不是在语言认知的基础上发现修辞的语法功能,而是在文学语言的本性上发掘修辞的流动性,以及对固化语言的瓦解作用。他将修辞和述行语结合起来,并对隐喻、强喻、寓言、反讽、拟人等修辞格重新诠释,通过它们进行文本分析,使解构主义文论批评具有了可操作性和可理解性,从而避免了在语言层面上的自我迷失。

As a renowned American literary theorist,J.H.Miller attaches the most importance to rhetoric.He doesn’t attempt to reveal the role which trope plays in Grammar on the basis of linguistic cognition,but,by the nature of the lexis of literature,to fathom the rhetorical fluidity and its effect in destructing solidified language.He combines rhetoric with performative and reinterprets some figures such as metaphor,catachresis,parable,irony,and prosopopoeia,by which,moreover,analysis of texts is at work,aiming to make literary criticism of deconstructionism available and conceivable and not being lost in the level of discourse.
