一、语言是思维的表象 试想一场争论:“我要击破你的观点”,“你的论点覆灭了”......如此等等,你是否觉察到,你已经将这场争论理解成了战争? 这种用一种概念系统来理解另一种行为的方式,通常叫做隐喻。 对于大部分人来说,隐喻只是一种修辞,无关紧要。事实恰恰相反,隐喻...
评分说起隐喻我们首先想到文学,但这本书指出隐喻绝不是文学的专利。从我们的习以为常的日常生活语言,到严肃的公共政治言论,再到被认为最客观精准的数学与科学,都离不开隐喻。本书出版后20年,已经在人脑里找到了隐喻神经学基础。 隐喻的根基建立在人的身体经验(如“上为好”的...
评分 评分《我们赖以生存的隐喻》是当代语言学经典著作,被视为认知语言学隐喻研究的开端。中译本评语指出:“该书完全颠覆了几千年来人们对于隐喻的狭隘看法,国内外但凡论及隐喻、认知的论文和专著,无不以此为经典。”读过之后,笔者感觉书中的许多观点虽然不能说是重塑三观,因为它...

People use metaphors every time they speak. Some of those metaphors are literary - devices for making thoughts more vivid or entertaining. But most are much more basic than that - they're "metaphors we live by", metaphors we use without even realizing we're using them. In this book, George Lakoff and Mark Johnson suggest that these basic metaphors not only affect the way we communicate ideas, but actually structure our perceptions and understandings from the beginning. Bringing together the perspectives of linguistics and philosophy, Lakoff and Johnson offer an intriguing and surprising guide to some of the most common metaphors and what they can tell us about the human mind. And for this new edition, they supply an afterword both extending their arguments and offering a fascinating overview of the current state of thinking on the subject of the metaphor.
探讨的核心问题是how metaphors structure our cognition,这大概是认知语言学;另外还涉及到how we see the world with metaphors,这便是语言学在心理层面的branch。算不上thought-provoking,但是将普通人司空见惯的、不以为意的隐喻用法系统条理地列出,的确是个对以往认知的挑战(隐喻几乎如同空气一般无处不在)。例子易懂生动,LOVE and ARGUEMENT是两大conventional metaphors,自然从书名就看得出作者志向高远,最后用experimental myth对于主客观存在论的挑战勇气可嘉,只不过较为weak,看得一头雾水。最后真的很好奇这本书怎么汉化?
评分虽然出发点仅仅是英语,但仍不失为心理语言学和认知语言学的经典之一。书也很小很便宜,网上还能搜到TXT版全文。
评分高中的时候就对语言和认知充满好奇, 但是整天东摸摸西看看的一直对什么都没有深入的探究, 进了上外更是把什么都扔掉了...... 这本书读得真是一下子感觉明朗了许多, 也很认同最后关于objectivism和subjectivism的讨论 (并不知道客观/主观主义和唯物/唯心主义什么区别...) 不过书看得少批判能力有限很容易就被说服了, 但是这本书倒的确特别看得进
评分写得不吸引人,清单式写作的典范嘛…还是认知语言学概论好看
评分至于能不能应用到文学作品应该另当别论,至少理论本身就有不少突破。
