摘要
本文通过对 Semino 和 Short 的话语表述语料库以及当代现在时小说语料库这两个语料库的研究,讨论了话语和思想表述规范的概念与实际文本中的话语和思想表述之间的关系。通过这种方法,我们回顾了每种话语表述中规范的含义。李奇和肖特认为,言语表述的规范是直接言语(DS),而思想表述的规范是间接思想(IT)。通过对他们的观点进行定量和定性分析,我们将讨论在不同的社会语言环境中如何选择言语和思想的表达形式。我们的研究有力地表明,DS 主要作为语音表达的规范。然而,受体裁、文本类型、叙事时态和模式的影响,思想表达方式表现出更大的可变性,因此我们的调查并没有确定思想表达方式在数量上始终优于其他表达方式的单一类别。
A review of Leech and Short’s norms of speech and thought presentation
This paper discusses how the concept of norms of speech and thought presentation relates to speech and thought presentation in actual texts with reference to the examination of two corpora, Semino and Short’s discourse presentation corpus, and a corpus of contemporary present-tense fiction. Through this approach, we review the meanings of the norms in each kind of discourse presentation. Leech and Short suggest that the norm of speech presentation is direct speech (DS) and the norm of thought presentation is indirect thought (IT). Examining their claim quantitatively and qualitatively, we will discuss how forms of speech and thought presentation are chosen in different socio-lingual contexts. Our examination strongly indicates that DS predominantly serves as the norm for speech presentation. However, thought presentation exhibits a higher degree of variability, influenced by genre, text type, and narrative tense and mode, and thus our investigation did not ascertain a singular category that consistently prevails quantitatively over others in thought presentation.
期刊介绍:
Language and Literature is an invaluable international peer-reviewed journal that covers the latest research in stylistics, defined as the study of style in literary and non-literary language. We publish theoretical, empirical and experimental research that aims to make a contribution to our understanding of style and its effects on readers. Topics covered by the journal include (but are not limited to) the following: the stylistic analysis of literary and non-literary texts, cognitive approaches to text comprehension, corpus and computational stylistics, the stylistic investigation of multimodal texts, pedagogical stylistics, the reading process, software development for stylistics, and real-world applications for stylistic analysis. We welcome articles that investigate the relationship between stylistics and other areas of linguistics, such as text linguistics, sociolinguistics and translation studies. We also encourage interdisciplinary submissions that explore the connections between stylistics and such cognate subjects and disciplines as psychology, literary studies, narratology, computer science and neuroscience. Language and Literature is essential reading for academics, teachers and students working in stylistics and related areas of language and literary studies.
