摘要

从根本上说,意义是由两个维度组成的:相似性和连续性,分别对应于大脑中主要负责语言处理的两个区域:韦尼克区和布罗卡区。现代文化倾向于通过资本主义中的货币/商品化和科学中的数学来过度强调相似性维度,这带来了灾难性的生态后果。生态文体学可以赞美和分析诗歌和小说的主题和语言模式,这些主题和语言模式挑战了这种过度强调。本文提出了五个这样的主题。为了防止过分强调相似性(1)个性化。为了庆祝布洛卡地区的邻近维度(2)动态过程,以及(3)与自然世界的相互联系和交流。然而,在当代英语小说中表现出来的对局部时间连续性的关注,分散了对长期生态变化的全球连续性的关注。(5)这两个维度也体现在隐喻和叙事上,前者挑战了传统的基于相似性的分类,后者将邻近维度扩展到小句之外。这些主题通过华兹华斯和爱德华·托马斯的诗歌例子来说明,并详细分析了以下文本:杰拉德·曼利·霍普金斯的《翠鸟着火》和《自然是一团赫拉克利特之火》;爱德华·托马斯的《词》,爱丽丝·奥斯瓦尔德的《十四行诗》和《双声鸟鸣》,以及威廉·戈尔丁的《继承者》,再回到迈克尔·韩礼德对文体学产生重大影响的文本分析。在系统功能语法框架内的及物性分析贯穿始终,并与量子物理、道教和其他过程哲学建立了联系。

Five themes for ecostylistics
Abstract Fundamentally, meaning is organized along two dimensions, similarity and contiguity, corresponding to two areas of the brain primarily responsible for language processing, Wernicke’s area and Broca’s area, respectively. Modern culture has tended to overemphasize the similarity dimension through money/commodification in capitalism, and mathematics in science, with disastrous ecological consequences. Ecostylistics can celebrate and analyze themes and linguistic patterns of poetry and novels which challenge this overemphasis. Five such themes are suggested in this article. To counter overemphasis on similarity (1) individuation. To celebrate Broca’s area’s contiguity dimension (2) dynamic process, and (3) interrelatedness and communication with the natural world. However, concentration on local contiguities of time, manifest in the contemporary English-speaking novel, distracts from the global contiguities of (4) long-term ecological change. (5) The two dimensions are also manifest in metaphor, which challenges conventional similarity-based classification, and narrative, which expands the contiguity dimension beyond the clause. These themes are illustrated by poetic examples from Wordsworth and Edward Thomas, and detailed analysis of the following texts: Gerard Manley Hopkins’ “As Kingfishers Catch Fire” and “Nature is a Heraclitean Fire”; Edward Thomas’s “The Word”, Alice Oswald’s “Sonnet” and “Birdsong for Two Voices”, and, returning to a text whose analysis by Michael Halliday was seminal for Stylistics, William Golding’s The Inheritors. Transitivity analysis within the framework of Systemic Functional Grammar is used throughout, and connections are made with quantum physics, Daoism, and other process philosophies.
