For a systematic analysis way of metaphoricity in discourse

Abstract From the perspective of metaphor in discourse (DEIGNAN, 2005; STEEN, 2007; MÜLLER, 2008), this study introduces a tool for systematic and sound analyses of metaphoricity in discourse. Based on the notion of metaphoricity as the possibility of metaphor recognition, it adopts the concept of activation device (MÜLLER, 2008) as a key element for determining this property, and discourse genre, on the other hand, as its main analytical basis (DIENSTBACH, 2017). This study puts forward the devices of its analytical tool next to examples drawn from texts identified with different genres. Finally, it addresses issues related to this method that remain inconclusive, as well as studies and tasks that could somehow benefit from it.

摘要：本研究立足于话语隐喻研究视角（DEIGNAN, 2005；STEEN, 2007；MÜLLER, 2008），提出了一套可对语篇中的隐喻性（metaphoricity）进行系统化、严谨化分析的工具。本研究将隐喻性界定为隐喻识别的可能性，以此为理论基础，采用激活装置（activation device，MÜLLER, 2008）作为判定该属性的核心要素，并以语篇体裁（discourse genre，DIENSTBACH, 2017）作为主要分析依据。本研究在阐述该分析工具的具体架构的同时，辅以来自不同语篇体裁的文本实例进行阐释。最后，本研究探讨了该方法尚存未定之论的相关问题，以及可从该方法中获益的各类研究方向与应用任务。
