论文摘要
从语言学的角度来看,绰号是一种的特殊的称谓语,即外号,是别人赋予的本名以外的另一种称呼。它利用人们共同的思维方式和熟知的客观事物,在普遍认同的语义条件下,采用联想的方式,将某个人与一定的称呼联系在一起,加以形象化,以表达人们的思想、感情。虽然绰号在我们的日常生活和文学作品中经常出现,但是由于绰号不是主流的语言文化现象,所以其研究历来没有得到应有的重视。本文选取了认知语言学这个视角对英汉绰号语料进行分析试图阐释绰号的构建规律,笔者首先对国内外的绰号研究进行了简要的综述,并做出评论。其次分别介绍了认知语言学中的概念隐喻理论和概念转喻理论,为接下来的分析建立了理论框架。接着详细分析了中英文绰号构建和理解的过程中贯彻着的隐喻转喻模式,同时基于对绰号认知研究的基础上,分析了影响隐喻绰号源域的选择以及转喻绰号事物间相邻、接近关系的选择上的文化因素。基于以上研究,本文得出结论如下:绰号不仅是一种语言现象,更是一种认知和文化现象。绰号的意义存在于基于认知模式而形成的概念系统中,是从语言符号到认知实体的映射,也是认知模式和文化模式的双重作用的结果,其在构建和理解的过程中,贯彻着隐喻转喻模式,但在隐喻源域的选择以及转喻事物间相邻、接近关系的选择上,还要受文化因素的制约。
