无丛书名修辞问句与关联理论:基于语料库的修辞问句在独白式文本中的语用研究(英文版) 本书特色
本书是“当代外语研究论丛”之一，以语料库为研究工具，提取西方独白式文本中的修辞问句，以语用学的主流理论———关联理论为框架，对修辞问句的使用原因、句式特征、文本功能、言语接受者辨别修辞问句类型、推断言者话语意图的过程等进行了深入分析。本书读者对象为对语料库研究、语用学、修辞学、语篇分析等语言学领域感兴趣的学者、博士生、研究生及本科生。
无丛书名修辞问句与关联理论:基于语料库的修辞问句在独白式文本中的语用研究(英文版) 内容简介
本书为“当代外语研究论丛”之一，调查了英国国家语料库(BNC)中优选频的50个身体部位词作为修辞性词素（概念隐喻）出现的3378类复合词，量化分析了其在英语复合词靠前位置和第二位置的分布规律。分析发现四种不同的语义属性与两个位置之间具有显著的相关性，这说明英语修辞复合词释义具有一定结构基础。因此，概念隐喻除了普通认知规律以外，还体现了具体语言结构的相对性。
