The Cognitive Pragmatic Investigation of Conceptualization in the Process of Text Understanding and Its Phenomenological Considerations

我们的研究表明，认知语言学的基本概念，如“连接词”和“辐射范畴”，在分析语言单位的各个层面上--不仅在词的层面上，而且在语篇的层面上--都是一致有效的。特别是，这些概念及其相关概念如“框架”和“前景/轮廓”在分析人际会话过程中是非常有效的。在人际会话中，随着话语的发展，某个词的意义可能会逐渐发生轻微的变化，从而导致严重的误解。我们的研究还表明，认知语言学的上述概念可以通过“反话语”的方式，对语篇中意义的建构过程进行综合性的解释。“我们的调查结果证实了这些认知语言学概念在未来的方法论上的有效性 关于我们 我们从一开始就假设，特别是在高度抽象的哲学文本中，文本理解的成功在很大程度上取决于读者理解这些文本中出现的类比和隐喻表达的能力。在此假设上，本文探讨了类比和隐喻的认知语言学理论，并阐明了它们在哲学文本理解中的作用。我们的研究表明，几乎所有的哲学基本概念都以某种方式起源于隐喻或类比。虽然哲学的基本概念可以被描述为高度抽象的，但它们植根于我们的具体经验，它们反映了通过我们具体的身体经验和感觉运动模式出现的一些意象图式。例如，在哲学讨论中使用的时间关系的表达，在其性质上是高度抽象的。在哲学家的讨论中，这种关系常常可以通过空间图式来表达。在这种情况下，空间现象作为“源域”，而“目标域”是时间关系。我们的研究表明，在思想史上，许多哲学概念都可能是从隐喻的“映射”中产生的。少

Our investigations have shown that the basic concepts in cognitive linguistics such as "construal" and "radial categories," are consistently valid in analyzing linguistic units at all levels- not only at word level but also at discourse level. Especially, it has been made clear that those concepts, together with their related concepts such as "frames" and "foregounding/profiling" are very effective in analyzing the processes in interpersonal conversations in which the meaning of a certain word may shift slightly and gradually as the discourse evolves among the participants, leading to serious misunderstanding among them. Our investigations have also made clear that the above-mentioned concepts in cognitive linguistics can explain in an integrated way the process of the emergence of meaning in text through constructionist processes by means of "counter discourses." These results of our investigations confirm the methodological effectiveness of these cognitive linguistic concepts in futu … More re cognitive pragmatics research.We assumed from the outset that especially in the case of highly abstract texts of philosophy the success of text understanding greatly depends upon the reader's ability to understand analogical and metaphorical expressions that appear in such texts. Upon this assumption the cognitive linguistic theory of analogy and metaphor has been investigated, and their functions in the understanding of philosophical texts have been elucidated. Our investigations have shown that almost all fundamental concepts of philosophy are originated in metaphors or analogies in some way. Although fundamental concepts of philosophy can be characterized as highly abstract, they are rooted in our concrete experiences, and they reflect some image-schemas that have emerged through our concrete body-experiences and sensory-motor patterns. For instance, the expressions of temporal relation, which are used in philosophical discussions, are highly abstract in their character. Such relations may be often expressed by means of spatial schemas in discussions of philosophers. In this case, spatial phenomena function as the "source-domain," and the "target-domain" is temporal relation. Our investigations have made clear that many philosophical concepts might have emerged from the metaphorical "mapping" in the history of thoughts. Less
