语篇连贯主要追求的是语义的连贯性。从认知语言学角度看,除了衔接手段,语篇本身的语义内容才是决定语篇连贯的必要条件。这就需要建立一个合适的、可被接受的认知世界。Lakoff认为隐喻在本质上就是一种认知活动,又是人类认识活动的工具和结果。本文从隐喻的照应性、索引性和顺应性三个方面论证其在语篇连贯的作用。
The main pursuit of discourse coherence is the semantic consistency. From the perspective of cognitive linguistics, in addition to the means of convergence, the semantic content of discourse itself is the necessary condition for discourse coherence. This requires establishing a suitable and acceptable cognitive world. Lakoff believes that metaphor is essentially a cognitive activity, but also a tool and result of human cognitive activity. This paper demonstrates the role of metaphor coherence in three aspects: adaptability, indexality and compliance.
