媒體語(yǔ)料中蘋(píng)果手表的批評(píng)隱喻分析
[Abstract]:Media discourse can construct the image of product in the consumer's mind through metaphor. Metaphor can effectively define the relationship between product and user and endow the subjectivity and control of product. As the Apple Watch (AW) enters the market, the media describes the features of the wearable device, constructs different metaphorical images of the watch, and highlights the multiple interactions between the device and the user. The present study uses critical metaphor analysis to reveal how device-related metaphors subvert the relative status of subject and object in the consumption and use of products, thus providing a new perspective for the study of power relations. In the past, scholars used the critical metaphorical analysis method to investigate the media discourse, and found a variety of science and technology related metaphors, especially personification. But previous studies focused on how to make better use of technology rather than reflect on the relationship between human and technology. The purpose of this study is to reveal the relationship between human beings and technology, to find out the metaphorical patterns of wearable devices in media, and to explore the metaphors of wearable devices in media discourse. What are the source domain (SD) and target domain (TD), of these metaphors and the social reasons for these metaphors? The present study is based on two self-built corpora, (OCC), an official advertising corpus, which is collected from the official product web pages, and (RC), a comment corpus from online and offline review articles, which is composed of 22847 words. After tagging and analyzing, the most outstanding metaphorical system in RC and RC is "Apple Watch (AW) is Human". It contains three sub-metaphorical systems, "part of AW is part of human body", "AW function is human behavior", and "AW is human" which treats the whole product as a person. Other metaphorical systems common to the two corpora include "the human body is a geographical space" and "a virtual space is a physical space". Metaphors reflect the growing power of smart devices and the increased initiative of devices. Compared with OCC, the number of metaphorically related words in RC is a little smaller, and more attention is paid to the details of description. The metaphorical system of "using Apple Watch is a Journey" in OCC is not found in RC, but some individual metaphors are independent of the system. Therefore, different from official writing, reviewers choose metaphors to express their experiences more vividly than to convey product images systematically. In order to better demonstrate how metaphor subverts power relations, this study examines the review of (Never Offline). This case study shows how the media manipulate metaphors to construct product images. In this paper, wearable devices are understood as living objects, which negates the positive image of product companies in advertising. One of the main metaphors, "Apple Watch is the colonizer", subverts the power relationship between the device and the user by showing the wearable device near the user, binding the user's wrist and thus restricting the user's freedom. The metaphorical model of the article reflects the power subversion between consumer goods and consumers. Smart devices are friends coaches and mediators between human and body on the one hand and affect the relationship between human and body on the other. Previous studies have not examined the relationship between technology and human beings from a metaphorical point of view. This study can find out that the human-technology relationship provides a new approach and provides a wake-up call for users to use electronic devices so as not to be enslaved by intelligent technology products. Future research can broaden our horizons to examine other technological products other than the Apple Watch and see if there are similar metaphorical patterns that reflect the relationship between human beings and technology.
