It is the unity of what is said and what is implicated. Grice's theory of conversational implicature provides some explicit account of how it is possible to mean more than what is literally expressed by the conventional sense of the linguistic expressions uttered. Using this theory, we can infer the speaker's real attention, appreciate figure of speech in literary work, and improve our communicative competence.展开更多

There are rhetorical question, switching, repetition, apostrophe, etc. in the drama language body standard. Furthermore, the lower utilization frequency of the drama language body standard is revealed by comparison with the literature and art style. The figures of speech in the drama language are open and unlimited. The drama language is more emphasized on the using of the figures of speech than the colloquial style.展开更多

The four categories help to portray the characters, reveal the theme, endow the text with a kind of uniqueness and ultimately contribute to the interest and readability of this excellent short story.展开更多

Is there only one benchmark for good literature, or are there different norms? To what extent are these norms dictated by the market? Questions like these relate to the issue of evaluation. Is literature still evaluated according to the internationally recognized definition of "modernity" that prevailed before World War II, or is it unfair to judge contemporary writers according to standards that dominated before 19497 The reason why contemporary Chinese literature (after 1949) might sometimes seem somehow lacking in comparison with modern Chinese literature (1912-49) might be found in historical changes in the role of the narrator in the novel. Literature after 1949 often returns to the omnipresent narrator, whose comments can be taken for granted. But, in the works of Lu Xun, the reader is often confronted with a narrator who is not reliable. In this way, the literature becomes ambivalent, and it is precisely this ambivalence that makes the literature "modern," as the reader has to decide which voice he or she is going to trust. It is also ambivalence which turns a narrating 'T' into a fictional character, which cannot be equated with the (real) author.展开更多
