在质量英文报纸中的人格化的隐喻概念

Metaphoric Concept of Personification in Quality British Press

本文讨论了知名英文印刷媒体及其电子版(《经济学人》杂志,《泰晤士报》和《电讯报》)短消息报道中人格化隐喻概念的实现。本文中,我们研究了英语新闻话语中人格化模型的所有组成部分并进行了分类。描述了隐喻投射的两个部分:第一部分为人格化的对象,第二部分包括实现人格化的语言手段。计算出了每组人格化对象的拟人化列举数量的百分比。

In this paper, we considered conceptual personification, which realises in English-language short informational messages. In this study, we classified linguistic means, by which an object was per-sonified in the English-language brief news discourse taken from quality British printed media (The Economist, The Times and The Telegraph) and their online variants. In addition, we classified objects which were subject to personification. For each group of personified objects, we estimated the percentage of the personification examples number.
