An Analysis of Fictional Dialogues of Love in a Fallen City in the Light of Relevance Theory

Although literary works are imaginary,they are based on careful observations of the real world.The fictional world is an imitation of the real world.So there is a strong similarity between them.The character utterances in fictions may be artificial in reality,but they are true in fictions.Therefore,pragmatic theories also have validity for literary interaction in theory.The au thor analyzes the fictional dialogues in Eileen Chang' s novel——Love in a Fallen City under the framework of the communica tion model based on Relevance Theory.In the academic field,Relevance Theory has been applied to explain a wide range of phenomena in translation,stylistics,phonology,and English teaching.However,the researches on mass communication discourse are still on the development.

A Pragmatic-Stylistic Analysis of Fictional Dialogues in Kazuo Ishiguro’s Short Story“Come Rain or Come Shine”

This study investigates the applicability and effectiveness of pragmatic-stylistic analysis in fictional dialogues.Taking Kazuo Ishiguro’s short story“Come Rain or Come Shine”in Nocturnes:Five Stories of Music and Nightfall as a case study,a detailed analysis of four fictional dialogues in this story has been conducted in the light of the cooperative principle,the im/politeness theory,and the turn-taking theory.The study has shown that pragmatic-stylistics offers a useful analytical tool in guiding readers to stylistically read character speech forms and interpret textual cues in conversation so as to gain a better insight into the characters’traits,their power relationships as well as the acceleration and deceleration in the narrative development.

A Comparative Study Of New Criticism&Semiotic Criticism——In Terms Of Their View Of The Relationship Between The Fictional World&The Real World

As we know,new criticism is the post—world school of critical theory insists onthe intrinsic value of work of art and focusses on the individual work alone asan independent unit of meaning.It is opposed to the critical practice of bringing histori-cal of brographical data to bear on the anterpretation of a work.To the new critocs,poet-.ry was a special kind of discourse,a means of communicating feeling and thought thatwould not be expressed in any other kind of language.It differed qualitatively from thelanguage of science,or philosophy,but it converyed valid meanings.Such critics set outto define and formalize the qualities of poetic thought and languagege,using the techniqueof close reading with special emphasis on the implicative values of works and on the vari-ous function of figurative language—imagery,metaphor and symbol—in the work.

DeLillo's Libra and the Subjunctive Mood as Fictionalization

Don DeLillo's Libra is often considered a postmodernist rendition of history,but there exist temporal distortions in his fiction that must be parsed into the subjunctive mood instead of the simple past tense.The fictive transformation from the temporal tense to the mood of potentiality underlies DeLillo's fictionalization of history that attempts to problematize the ironclad facts.This would to power manifests the point that fiction is a poetic and emotive alternative to actualized reality.What is Real to fiction lies in its virtual reality.

The Epiphany and the Moment——A Critical View of Joyce and Woolf's Fictional Technique

Resonance From the Past to the Future:Mythological Metaphors in Chinese Science Fiction Films

This paper is centered on the extent to which contemporary Chinese science fiction is related to ancient Chinese mythologies according to the previous scholarly discussion and how these ancient mythologies are utilized specifically in the futuristic narratives of modern Chinese science fiction.By referring to academic dialogues,this paper argues that ancient mythologies can be recreated in modern science fiction and create modern mythologies in futuristic narratives to present or deal with modern human fears.Based on this argument,this paper then continues to explore what kinds of modern mythologies science fiction might deliver.The Chinese film The Wandering Earth(2019)will be discussed in terms of its mythological symbols and metaphors.This paper proposes a new approach through which to reconnect past stories with futuristic narratives and builds a frame in which to contextualize ancient mythologies in contemporary Chinese culture.

Doctors’Dilemma in Auspicious Pulse Diagnosis Represented in Ming-Qing Fiction

Auspicious pulse diagnosis/pregnancy diagnosis in traditional Chinese medicine involves such issues as medical skills,narrative skills,family decency,and ethics.It is an excellent case for the exploration of ethical dilemmas in traditional Chinese medical practice.The early classical medical texts such as Su Wen(Basic Questions)and Ling Shu Jing(Spiritual Pivot Canon)provide a principle-based ethical guide for doctor-patient communication,while popular fiction such as Hong Lou Meng(A Dream of Red Mansions),Yu Mu Xing Xin Bian(Stories:Entertain to Enlighten),and Feng Yue Meng(Courtesans and Opium)in the Ming and Qing dynasties present literary examples for solving ethical dilemmas.This article will analyze these texts from three perspectives.First,the doctors in the text were subject to gender order and other delicate etiquette and customs,therefore were unable to make the diagnosis without embarrassing the patients and jeopardizing family decency.Second,the narrator tends to attribute pregnancy misdiagnosis to three reasons:incomplete patient information,doctors’poor narrative competence,and doctors’corrupted medical ethics.Finally,the Ming-Qing fiction proposes three methods to solve this moral dilemma:clear pulse reading,tactful speech,and taboo challenging.This discussion of moral dilemmas in pregnancy diagnosis in traditional Chinese medical practice can be used as a reference for the localization of narrative medicine.

Edgar Lawrence Doctorow’s Ragtime:Ragtime Music and the Musicalization of Fiction

The purpose of the present paper is to explore Edgar Lawrence Doctorow’s novel Ragtime(1975)as a masterful adaptation of musical form in fiction.It demonstrates the ways in which the use of musical devices of Ragtime shapes the rhythmic/narrative structure of the novel.The article offers the reading of the novel as a musicalized fiction,or,in other words,as a form of musico-literary intermediality.It focuses on the chief characteristics of Doctorow’s novel such as a plurality of independent consciousnesses and a diversity of simultaneous points of view/voices.The novel by its very design is polyphonic.Manipulating polyrhythmic effects,mixed rhythms,repetitive phrases and leitmotifs,Doctorow is experimenting with the rhythm both on micro and macro textual levels.

Gender Emergency:Fear of the Forsaken

Considered a great example of investigative fiction,Mia per sempre[Mine Forever]which denounces violence against women,encourages them to speak out,seek assistance,and refuse to flee in terror,has been hailed as outstanding work to denounce violence against women.The book is a study of women’s unusual relationships,which are marked by intense love,envious friendships,and unbreakable ties that result in mental instability,irrational behavior,or uncontrollable behavior.Tani’s work has also received recognition for including the knowledgeable perspectives of various specialists who offer a deeper and priceless understanding of these catastrophes occurring individuals’home.This study examines those instances of fear-sharing in relation to women’s independence and ability to move on or start new lives.The main question is how and why Tani’s employs fear.Who are the women or circumstances that cause fear?This paper considers the theoretical discourse on fear developed by scholars of the emotions such as,among others,Jaimal Yogis and Olsson and Phelps in order to examine the circumstances and outcomes of fear fashioned by Tani in her representation of Italian men’s criminal reaction to women’s autonomy.

In Her Mother’s House:Mother-Daughter Dissonance in Post-1990s Chinese American Fiction

This paper attempts to examine the trope of“home”and the depiction of mother-daughter dissonance“in her mother’s house”in post-1990s Chinese American fiction.The research selects four novels in the case study and focuses on how mother-daughter dissonance“in her mother’s house”is presented,what cultural connotations the trope of“home”carries and how they are affected by such extra-contextual factors as racism,sexism and classism.In comparison with two representative mother-daughter narrative works in pre-1990s period,the new characteristics and connotations of“home”in mother-daughter dissonance in post-1990s Chinese American fiction are revealed.

Research on the Foreign Communication of Chinese Science Fiction Literature in the Perspective of Public Diplomacy

In recent years,China’s public diplomacy has flourished,with literary exchanges and external communication undoubtedly becoming an essential part.Particularly with the progress of Chinese technology,science fiction literature has become a focal point both domestically and internationally.This paper investigates the background of the Chinese science fiction literature’s national characteristics,the manifestation of these characteristics in works,and the advantages of communication from three aspects.It also explores new ideas for the external communication of Chinese science fiction literature from the perspective of public diplomacy,inspiring new pathways for the integration of Chinese culture with the world,and telling Chinese stories to the world.

The Poison of Polygamy:Genre of the English Translation

When the Chinese-language The Poison of Polygamy was translated into English,some critics identified the work as picaresque.Skeptical of this conclusion,the author of this paper broadens the field of inquiry to suggest classification in an emigrant sensational genre.Briefly,the first two plots of the multi-strand work unfold the adventures of Chinese emigrants travelling by sea and land to Melbourne’s Gold Mountain.Interestingly,we are also afforded a glimpse of emigrant miners’cooperation regardless of race and colour when a mine disaster occurs.The work provides sharp recognition of migrants’dilemmas,such as marriage,before tackling the bigamy issue,the gender war,the fallen lifestyle of the female protagonist and so on.As the work unfolds,further shocking tales of murders and indulgence are revealed.Unlike the picareque’s episodic style,the translated Poison of Polygamy is coherent,realistic,serious and critical,and completely lacking in both sarcasm and playfulness.To investigate the appropriateness of assigning the work to the picaresque genre,the paper compares briefly with representative Spanish picaresque works such as Lazarillo and Gusman and English canonical Moll Flanders,watching carefully for commonalities.However,The Poison of Polygamy would seem to resonate more with Braddon’s Lady Audley’s Secret,a sensational fiction which shocked the English world in the 1860s.The contexts of both novels are close,mid-Victorian and Edwardian,where the latter is a continuation of the Victorians.The author is further enlightened by research results of literary translators who advocate that a text,once translated into a target language,becomes a canon of that culture and is cherished as such by its readers-as in the case of Shakespeare being revered as a German poet when read in translation.From this experiment the paper deems that cross-lingual comparative literature is not only possible but significant and resourceful.

文学作为一种文化阐释机制:从非虚构到虚构

自《人民文学》2010年推出＂非虚构＂专栏以来,＂非虚构＂文学现象日益成了当前文学研究一个热点话题。非虚构理论和文学的盛行引发了一个需要关注的问题：如果把非虚构视为一种新的文学体裁和创作手法,也就意味着制造出了一种不同于传统文学体裁、手法的新的文学观念。一方面,任何一种新观念的产生都会给既有的观念造成强烈地冲击,甚至否定、替换原有的观念;另一方面,有些新观念尽管令人耳目一新.

类型、人物与观众的新变:当代好莱坞泛奇幻类IP改编的策略——以《饥饿游戏》系列电影为例

一、泛奇幻作为一种类型 在类型电影的发展历程中,奇幻（fantasy）、科幻（science fiction）、魔幻（magic）类电影都是数字技术与电影紧密结合下的革新产物,也是体现数字特效技术魅力最为适宜的电影类型。但这三者的概念在本质上有所差别,科幻作品的创作范式主要是描写科学技术所创造出的新世界、新事物,表达科技发展对社会和人类的影响。魔幻类作品起源于魔幻现实主义,其显著特点是必须以现实为基础,
