摘要
国情咨文是执政党对过去一年工作的回顾和下一年工作的展望,是典型的政治语篇。本文运用批评性隐喻分析法,以奥巴马2014国情咨文及共和党人Mike Lee和Rand Paul对其回应的讲话为语料,对隐喻的选择、阐释,以及隐喻的语用效果产生机理进行对比研究,揭示执政党和在野党在隐喻选择方面体现出的不同意识形态和道德价值体系,以及他们如何通过激活民众的认知机制和情感进而影响民众的行为取向。
State of the Union( SOTU) is the review of the administrative program about the past year and also: the outlook for the coming year. It is a kind of typical political discourse. A critical metaphor analysis of SOTU( 2014) and its republican responses is conducted to make a comparative study on metaphor choices,metaphor explanations and the working mechanism of pragmatic effects of metaphors concerning the two parties. The present study tries to reveal their different ideologies and moral values through choosing different metaphors,and to show that specific metaphors can influence people's political behaviors through activating people's cognitive mechanism and emotion.
