摘要

概念隐喻理论认为隐喻是一种心理功能,而不仅仅是一种文学手段。因此,隐喻可能存在于人类认知的任何副产品中,包括图画艺术。Crawford和Juricevic之前提出了两个用于识别和解释图画中隐喻的启发式框架,这两个框架已被证明能够描述图画隐喻在漫画媒介中是如何识别和解释的。本研究测试了艺术家对漫画封面图像中上下文和结构图片信息组合的偏好。我们分析了漫画封面艺术中夸张尺寸的用法,因为夸张尺寸是一种绘画手段,既可以从字面上使用,也可以从隐喻上使用。目标是评估上下文信息和结构信息是如何结合的,以及文字信息和隐喻信息是如何相互作用的,无论是一致的还是不一致的。这种对漫画艺术中使用夸张尺寸的分析表明,艺术家更喜欢制作具有文字和隐喻图像信息的一致组合,或者隐喻上下文信息和文字结构信息的不一致组合的图像。然而,艺术家并不喜欢制作具有隐喻性结构信息和字面语境信息不协调组合的图像。结合语料库分析关联理论(CART)的论点,这种模式表明,在处理信息时,我们的认知系统更喜欢隐喻解释而不是字面解释,更喜欢上下文信息而不是结构信息。

Understanding pictorial metaphor in comic book covers: A test of the contextual and structural frameworks
Conceptual metaphor theory proposes that metaphor is a mental function, rather than solely a literary device. As such, metaphors may be present in any by-product of human cognition, including pictorial art. Crawford and Juricevic previously proposed two heuristic frameworks for the identification and interpretation of metaphor in pictures, which have been shown to be capable of describing how pictorial metaphors are identified and interpreted in the comic book medium. The present study tested artists’ preference for combinations of contextual and structural pictorial information in comic book cover images. We analysed usages of exaggerated size in comic book cover art, as exaggerated size is a pictorial device, which may be used both literally and metaphorically. The goal was to assess how contextual and structural information is combined, and how literal and metaphorical information interacts, both when it is congruent and incongruent. This analysis of the use of exaggerated size in comic book art indicates that artists prefer to produce images that have congruent combinations of literal and metaphoric pictorial information, or the incongruent combination of metaphoric contextual information and literal structural information. Artists do not, however, prefer to produce images that have the incongruent combination of metaphorical structural information and literal contextual information. Taken together with the Corpus Analysis Relevance Theory (CART) argument, this pattern suggests that when processing information, our cognitive systems prefer metaphorical interpretations over literal interpretations and contextual information over structural information.
