“足”的隐喻认知对比研究

摘要

身体或者器官是人类认知世界的基础之一。就人类的思维和概念的形成而言，身体或者器官的隐喻化具有极为重要的意义。作为人体最重要的部位之一，“足”在形成概念、理解事物的过程中发挥着非常重要的作用。从汉日语言比较的视角，基于概念隐喻理论和人体隐喻化的三大分类，就“足”的隐喻认知的基本特点来展开研究，并尝试揭示出两种语言环境下“足”这一词汇的隐喻运行机制的异同性。%Human body and the body organs are one of the basic means for people to cognize the world.Their metaphorization plays a very important role in forming human’s thinking and conception about the world.Foot, as an important part of the human body,is very helpful for people to form some conception and understand the world.Based on this view,the paper makes a contrastive study on the metaphoric cognition characteristics of foot between Chinese and Japanese in terms of Conceptual Metaphor Theory and the three types of body metaphorization.This paper intends to explore their differences and similarities on the metaphoric working mechanism of foot under the two different language environments.
