　　空間作為人類認知世界的一個基本范疇,已經(jīng)受到各界學者的普遍關注,而空間方位指空間內(nèi)的兩個或多個物體間的位置關系。由于人類處于共同的物理空間,表達空間方位范疇的詞構成了一個封閉的詞集。無論何種語言,空間方位范疇中都包含上—下、前—后、里—外等基本方位概念。對于隱喻的研究已由來已久,隱喻不僅是一種修辭手法,更是一種人類認知世界的工具。在體驗的基礎上,人們通過隱喻將未知的事物與已知的事物建立聯(lián)系以認知世界。恰恰由于空間概念的基礎性地位,人們往往以空間概念為始源域,向其他抽象的目的域投射隱喻意義,以獲得新知。然而,人們對于空間方位隱喻意義的研究,普遍缺乏一定的系統(tǒng)性,且鮮有不同文化之間的對比分析。 本文擬從認知功能的角度,對比研究英漢空間方位中三組對應概念:上—下、前—后、里—外,通過對這三組空間方位詞在詞典和語料庫中出現(xiàn)的相關體例進行質(zhì)化分析,找出這三組空間詞所表現(xiàn)的隱喻延伸義的共性與差異,并嘗試從認知、文化和歷史的角度給予解釋。研究發(fā)現(xiàn),英漢空間方位的隱喻義在時間、狀態(tài)、社會地位和關系的目標域中都有所體現(xiàn),且整體上體現(xiàn)出相似的隱喻意義。無論英語還是漢語,在時間域中,“上”、“前”傾向表示時...
