戴震体认语言观初探

Preliminary Study on Dai Zhen’s Embodied-Cognitive View on Language

戴震的体认语言观包含在其音转学、语义学与解释学中。戴震的体认音转学表现为“音近义通、以‘体’为本”,身体结构与生理运动直接参与意义的生成与构建,构成本体论层次的体认;戴震的体认语义学表现为“察触悟感、体情遂欲”,构成认识论层次的体认;戴震体认解释学凸显“大精其心、以心相遇”,构成一种实践论层次的体认。戴震体认语言观的探究对推进体认语言学的本土化研究具有积极意义。

Dai Zhen’s embodied-cognitive view on language can be discovered in his phonemics, semantics and hermeneutics. Dai Zhen’s phonemics is characterized as “similar sounds, associative meanings” and “being based on the body”. The bodily structure and movement directly create and construct meaning, which constitutes the ontological embodiment. Dai Zhen’s semantics is featured as “experiencing, contacting, enlightening, and feeling”, and thus “reasonable desire should be satisfied”, which makes up the epistemological embodiment. Dai Zhen’s hermeneutics has the character of “enriching and deepening the mind”, which formed as the practical embodiment. The study on Dai Zhen’s embodied-cognitive view on language is the active promotion of localized study of embodied-cognitive linguistics.
