摘要

近年来，概念隐喻在传染病语篇研究中受到广泛关注。大多数研究发现，战争的概念隐喻主导着媒体关于疾病的话语。同样，人们对新型冠状病毒COVID-19进行了大量研究，特别是在英语新闻话语中，而不是在其他语言中。相比之下，本研究分析了法语报纸中COVID-19话语中使用的概念隐喻。本研究使用概念隐喻理论框架(CMT)，探讨了这些报纸在COVID-19话语中使用的语言隐喻，以及构成和激励这些话语的概念隐喻。因此，两份北非法语报纸，即在摩洛哥出版的《lib》和在突尼斯出版的《突尼斯新闻报》构成了本研究的内容。结果显示，最常见的关于COVID-19的框架是战争，其次是灾难和杀手。

Conceptual metaphors in North African French-speaking news discourse about COVID-19

Conceptual metaphors have received much attention in research on discourse about infectious diseases in recent years. Most studies found that conceptual metaphors of war dominate media discourse about disease. Similarly, a great deal of research has been undertaken on the new coronavirus, i.e., COVID-19, especially in the English news discourse as opposed to other languages. The present study, in contrast, analyses the conceptual metaphors used in COVID-19 discourse in French-language newspapers. The study explored the linguistic metaphors used in COVID-19 discourse in these newspapers and conceptual metaphors that underlie and motivate them, using a conceptual metaphor theory framework (CMT). Therefore, two North African French-language newspapers, namely Libération, published in Morocco, and La Presse de Tunisie, published in Tunisia, formed the corpus of the current study. The results showed that the most frequent framing of COVID-19 was in terms of WAR, followed by DISASTER and KILLER, respectively.
