摘要

本文以语料库为基础,研究土耳其语和美国英语中“民主”概念的隐喻概念化,以了解这个社会政治术语在土耳其语和美国人的脑海中是如何概念化的。数据库包含4000条从TNCv3.0、TS Columns、COCA和NOW四个不同语料库中提取的一致性行。批判性隐喻分析(Charteris-Black, 2004)和MIP (Pragglejaz, 2007)被用于隐喻的识别、解释和诠释。研究结果表明,各种语言隐喻可分为几种来源领域类别,其中最常见的是物理对象、冲突和生物体。土耳其语中最普遍的比喻是民主是目的地,而美式英语中民主是战争,体现了两种不同的世界观。该研究提出,民主概念的构成方式在操纵人们对他们所统治的民主类型的感知方面发挥了作用。

A comparative critical metaphor analysis on the concept of democracy in Turkish and American English
Abstract This corpus-based study concentrates on the metaphorical conceptualizations of the concept of ‘democracy’ in Turkish and American English to find out how this socio-political term is conceptually represented in the minds of Turkish and American speakers. The database consists of 4000 concordance lines that were extracted from four different corpora: TNCv3.0, TS Columns, COCA, and NOW. Critical Metaphor Analysis (Charteris-Black, 2004) and MIP (Pragglejaz, 2007) were employed in the identification, explanation and interpretation of metaphors. Findings indicate various linguistic metaphors that can be grouped under several source domain categories including physical object, conflict and living organism as the most frequent ones. The most widespread metaphor in Turkish is democracy is a destination, whereas it is democracy is war in American English, embodying two different worldviews. The study proposes that the way the concept of democracy is composed has a role in manipulating people’s perception of the type of a democracy they are ruled by.
