多语环境中的安哥拉葡萄牙语研究现状述评

Reviews of Portuguese Language Studies in Multilingual Environment of Angola

非洲是人类文明的摇篮,它独一无二的多语环境为语言学研究提供了宝贵资源。15世纪以来,殖民主义使得葡萄牙语成为多个非洲国家的官方或者通用语言,安哥拉作为非洲第二大葡语国家,葡语在该国的发展具有典型性和代表性。在20世纪初的去殖民化进程中,安哥拉政府确立了以葡语为官方语言、多种本地语言并存的语言政策,这对多语环境的发展起着积极作用,然而也存在着官方语言和本地语言生存空间相互竞争、语言歧视、身份认同危机等问题,这都值得学者们去探索。论文以63篇安哥拉葡语相关研究重要文献为基础,综述该领域研究的类型、数量和主要研究内容,以及可能存在的问题,对安哥拉葡语发展历程开展了多视角研究,并有针对性地开展了总体评价,探讨目前研究的可借鉴性和局限性,尽可能展现较为完整的研究概况。

Africa is the cradle of human civilization, and its unique multi-lingual environment provides a University of Porto resource for linguistic research. Since the 15th century, colonialism has made Portuguese the official or common language of many African countries, and Angola, the second largest portuguese-speaking country in Africa, is typical and representative of its development. During the process of decolonization at the beginning of the 20th century, the Angolan government established a language policy in which Portuguese was the official language and many native languages coexisted, which played a positive role in the development of a multilingual environment, however, there are some problems such as the competition between the official language and the local language, language discrimination and identity crisis, which are worth exploring. On the basis of 63 important documents on portuguese-related research in Angola, the paper summarizes the types, quantity and main contents of research in this field, as well as the possible problems, a multi-perspective study on the development of the Portuguese language in Angola has been carried out and a general evaluation has been made to explore the referential and limitations of the current study and to present a more complete survey of the study as far as possible.
