中美大學(xué)畢業(yè)典禮演講詞中的概念隱喻對(duì)比研究
[Abstract]:Metaphor is a cognitive style in people's daily life. The traditional metaphorical view holds that metaphor is a tool to modify language in order to make language more vivid. However, with the rise of cognitive linguistics, contemporary researchers realize that metaphor is not only a tool to modify language, but also can help people understand the world. In 1980, Lakoff and Johnson first proposed "conceptual metaphor". They see metaphor as a systematic way of thinking, acting, and expressing ideas. Since then, conceptual metaphors have been studied in many areas, such as political speech, news and literature. In the past, there was a lot of research on analytical political speeches. However, few studies have analyzed conceptual metaphors in non-political speeches from the perspective of conceptual metaphors. Commencement speech as one of the most important components of graduation is worth studying. Based on the relevant theories of conceptual metaphor, this thesis attempts to make a comparative study of conceptual metaphors in commencement speeches in China and America. In this study, 60 commencement speeches were collected from 30 Chinese universities and 30 from American universities. All the data are downloaded on the official website of each school. Through a comparative analysis of conceptual metaphors in commencement speeches in China and the United States, The purpose of the study is to answer the following three questions: (1) what conceptual metaphors are used in the commencement speeches in China? (2) what conceptual metaphors are used in the commencement speeches in the United States? (3) what conceptual metaphors are used in the commencement speeches in China and the United States? Are there similarities and differences in the conceptual metaphors used? The results show that the conceptual metaphors involved in the commencement speeches in China include ten aspects: travel, human beings, war, architecture, nature, location, containers, food, competitions and lines; Conceptual metaphors in American college commencement speeches also cover ten aspects: travel, human beings, war, nature, location, containers, family, food, architecture, and competition. Through the comparative study, we find that there are some similarities and differences in the commencement speeches between China and the United States. The common points are the first, and the frequency of using conceptual metaphors in the commencement speeches is very high. There are nine identical conceptual metaphors in the speeches of Chinese and American universities. Thirdly, some conceptual metaphors have the same mapping process. The differences are as follows: first, the number and proportion of conceptual metaphors used in commencement speeches in China and the United States are not corresponding; second, line metaphors only appear in Chinese university speeches. Family metaphors only appear in American college speeches. The same conceptual metaphors used by Chinese and American universities may be due to the same human body experience and thinking pattern. However, due to the different national conditions between China and the United States, conceptual metaphors in the two languages have some differences in some of the same conceptual metaphors.
