Considering the educational background of Thomas Hardy, especially since he once followed a mentor at Oxford University who was a master of classics, it is a great possibility that Tess was created based on an archetype in Greek mythology. Typically, Tess is compared with Medea, who killed Jason because of his betrayal and disloyalty. However, after analyzing the motivation for murder, Tess shares more similarities with Clytemnestra and Penelope, and this paper will give a detailed analysis of Tess and the characters in Greek mythology. The comparison will reveal the root of Tess's tragedy—a thousand years of taming and scrutinizing females.","PeriodicalId":223840,"journal":{"name":"Lecture Notes on Language and Literature","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135759580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Afterwards, the motivations of the translators' visibility are qualitatively analyzed from the viewpoints of translation aesthetics, Chang's theoretical statement on translator's visibility and invisibility in PRC, as well as the translators' personal linguistic habitus. The author hopes to promote a new methodology and perspective, namely, the corpus-based approach and typical four-character Chinese idioms (chengyu and sizige) into the field of translation studies, especially translator's visibility and invisibility.","PeriodicalId":223840,"journal":{"name":"Lecture Notes on Language and Literature","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135500982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By delving into the cognitive mechanisms underlying human language, cognitive linguistics offers a fresh perspective for analyzing literary works. This paper, guided by the conceptual metaphor theory, aims to explore the presence of conceptual metaphor in Toni Morrison's Beloved. It seeks to unravel the reasons behind the author's extensive use of metaphor and to uncover the metaphorical meanings embedded within the main characters of the novel. Through this analysis, a deeper understanding of the novel's theme can be achieved. By examining the intricate web of metaphors woven throughout the text, we can gain insight into the characters' experiences, emotions, and relationships, ultimately shedding light on the profound messages conveyed by Morrison's masterful storytelling. The exploration of conceptual metaphor in Beloved not only enriches our understanding of the novel but also highlights the power of language and metaphor in shaping our thoughts and perceptions. This interdisciplinary approach, combining cognitive linguistics and literary analysis, opens up new avenues for studying and appreciating literature, allowing us to uncover hidden layers of meaning and appreciate the intricate interplay between language, thought, and creativity.","PeriodicalId":223840,"journal":{"name":"Lecture Notes on Language and Literature","volume":"272 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135501003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The success of Cries in the Drizzle lies in its use of cognitive metonymy. Yu Hua constructs unusual collocations with \"Adj + N\" constructions involving metonymy, such as \"stupid slobber\" and \"clever smile\" which abound in Cries in the Drizzle, so that the characters and plot in the novel are vivid and touching. The term \"metonymic humanization\" first appears in Zhang (2015)[2] modeling on psych \"Adj + N\" constructions, such as \"a small reluctant hand\". In the elaboration of this concept, Zhang (2023)[3] proposes that the vivid and touching description in a novel often emerges from embodiment of visual and auditory perceptions in metonymic humanization. According to Zhang, metonymic humanization shares the same mechanism with metonymy. Therefore, it is worthy of taking metonymic humanization approach to the analysis of literary texts. This study examines the unusual collocations with \"Adj + N\" constructions in Yu Hua's Cries in the Drizzle from the perspective of cognitive poetics, focusing on the mechanism of metonymic humanization. The findings of this study indicate that cognitive metonymy is an effective approach to literary texts and metonymic humanization is an effective way to analysis of unusual collocations in literary texts. And finally in the hope of revealing the hypothesis Zhang (2023)[3] proposed that both Chinese and English should be metonymic.","PeriodicalId":223840,"journal":{"name":"Lecture Notes on Language and Literature","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135611051","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It describes the link between word frequency (F) and its frequency rank (R) as F×R=C (constant)[1]. A large number of studies have been conducted to test the applicability of Zipf's Law in various languages and diverse text types. However, as language keeps developing and changing, there is a continuous need for the verification of Zipf's Law in the most up-to-date materials and texts in different languages. In addition, different categories of texts should be taken into consideration. Based on this, this study selected the report of the 20th National Congress and its multilingual translations, which contain English, Spanish, and Russian, as our research objects. We used AntConc to detect the distribution of their word frequency and found that all of these report texts of four languages conform to Zipf's Law, and there is a slight difference in terms of fitness degree between the Russian text and the other three. We assumed that it is mainly caused by the limited text length and the translation process.","PeriodicalId":223840,"journal":{"name":"Lecture Notes on Language and Literature","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135500736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
