摘要

本研究将概念隐喻理论和叙事心理学的方法论工具与主体间心理语言学意义方法的理论假设相结合,探讨2013年1月至2020年7月期间跨性别者在TED平台上发表的16场TED演讲中过渡叙事隐喻的实例。演讲者年龄在20岁至70岁之间;8名男性和8名女性;2名美国黑人和9名白人、2名菲律宾人、1名南非黑人、1名波多黎各人和1名澳大利亚白人。本研究基于意义的主体间性模型,对叙事隐喻进行了新的阐释。在这个模型中,叙事隐喻被认为是一种扩展的概念隐喻,它是由叙事的文本、社会、文化和历史背景,但主要是由其互动的情境背景,通过移情将观众纳入叙事,并赋予他们改变叙事的力量,在许多多模式隐喻表达中实例化的。研究表明,所有16个被分析的叙事都基于“过渡就是竞争”叙事隐喻,该隐喻代表了跨性别者对过渡的积极自我评价与其社会的负面评价/不接受之间的冲突,这使过渡成为一种创伤体验。在16篇叙事中,体现内容隐喻的单词和短语的密度从2.5%到3%不等,这意味着它们是叙事的关键语言表达。与在现有的认知语言学和跨性别研究中被发现代表过渡经验的旅程/旅行隐喻相比,竞争隐喻对跨性别过渡提供了更深入的见解。《旅程/旅行》的隐喻未能把握过渡体验的主体间性,因此也未能把握其创伤性质。研究结果表明,如果从主体间性的角度来看待叙事和叙事隐喻,可以得到更准确的解释,这反映了它们作为社会和文化塑造的互动现象的真实性质。

Transition Trauma Metaphor in Transgender Narrative
This study combines methodological tools of conceptual metaphor theory and narrative psychology with theoretical assumptions of the intersubjective psycholinguistic approach to meaning to explore instantiations of transition narrative metaphors in 16 TED talks given by transgender people and posted on the TED platform within the period between January 2013 and July 2020. The speakers are aged from 20 to 70; 8 males and 8 females; 2 black and 9 white Americans, 2 Filipinos, 1 black South-African, 1 Puerto Rican, and 1 white Australian. The study offers a new interpretation of narrative metaphor based on the intersubjective model of meaning. Within this model, narrative metaphor is conceived as extended conceptual metaphor instantiated in a number of multimodal metaphoric expressions made coherent by the textual, social, cultural, and historical context of the narrative, but primarily by its interactive situational context, which includes the audience into the narrative through empathy and gives them power to change the narrative. The research reveals that all the 16 analysed narratives rest on the TRANSITION IS CONTEST narrative metaphor that represents a conflict between positive self-evaluation of transition by a transgender individual and its negative evaluation / unacceptance by the society, which makes transition a traumatic experience. The density of words and phrases instantiating the CONTEST metaphor in the 16 narratives varies from 2,5 to 3 % which means that they are key linguistic expressions of the narratives. The CONTEST metaphor provides a deeper insight into transgender transition compared to the JOURNEY/TRAVEL metaphor found to represent transition experience in existing cognitive linguistic and transgender studies. The JOURNEY/TRAVEL metaphor fails to grasp the intersubjective and, consequently, traumatic nature of transition experience. The results of the research suggest that narrative as well as narrative metaphor can be given a more accurate interpretation if they are approached from the intersubjective perspective, which reflects their true nature as socially and culturally shaped interactive phenomena.
