1.引言本章的标题暗示了我们的前一卷《语言理据研究》(2004),在那本书中,我们提供了语言理据的工作定义,并提出了理据的类型学,包括生态、遗传、经验、知觉、认知、交际和其他理据。在本章中,我们的出发点是认知,即我们认为对人类状况至关重要的“信息处理系统”。认知与其他人类系统相关,并在这些系统之间起中介作用,我们称之为“外围系统”(见图1)。其中包括身体体验、情感、知觉、行动、社会和交流互动、文化和语言。从这个更普遍的角度来看,语言中的理据可以被看作是一个人类系统对另一个人类系统施加影响的特殊情况。e导言的结构如下:第2节概述人类系统之间相互作用的总体框架。第三节,更具体地,阐述了语言和认知(思维)之间的相互作用。第4节提供了对本卷的贡献的摘要,并将其与第2节和第3节概述的概念框架联系起来。第5节最后对开放性问题和未来研究的议程进行了一些评论。我们要感谢琳达奥恩伯格阅读了介绍性章节,并在内容和风格上提出了许多改进建议,这些建议已被纳入文本。我们也感谢一位匿名评论者的评论,这启发了我们重新思考和重新制定我们对语言动机的概念。上述学者当然不对任何遗留的错误和缺陷负责。
1. Introduction e title of this introductory chapter alludes to our prior volume Studies in Linguistic Motivation (2004), in which we offered a working definition of linguistic motivation and proposed a typology of motivations, comprising ecological, genetic, experiential, perceptual, cognitive, communicative and other motivations. In the present chapter our point of departure is cognition, the “information-processing system” that we consider central to the human condition. Cognition relates to and mediates among other human systems, which we refer to as “peripheral”(see Figure 1). ey include, amongst others, bodily experience, emotion, perception, action, social and communicative interaction, culture–and language. From this more general perspective, motivation in language can be regarded as a special case of influence that one human system exerts upon another human system. e Introduction is structured as follows: Section 2 presents a sketch of the overall framework of the interaction among human systems. Section 3, more specifically, elaborates the interaction between language and cognition (thought). Section 4 provides summaries of the contributions to this volume, relating them to the conceptual framework outlined in Sections 2 and 3. Section 5 concludes with some remarks on open questions and an agenda for future research.* We would like to thank Linda ornburg for reading carefully through the introductory chapter and suggesting many improvements both in content and style, which have found their way into the text. We are also grateful for the comments of an anonymous reviewer, which inspired us to rethink and reformulate our conception of motivation in language. e abovementioned scholars are of course not responsible for any remaining errors and flaws.
