圖書(shū)簡(jiǎn)介
本書(shū)是“自然語(yǔ)義元語(yǔ)言(NSM)”理論的一本重要著述。作者通過(guò)大量的文獻(xiàn)分析和實(shí)例論證，向我們闡釋了NSM理論及“文化腳本”法在語(yǔ)義描述上所具有的卓越功能。
作者在書(shū)中提出了“盎格魯英語(yǔ)”的概念，指出要分析和發(fā)現(xiàn)蘊(yùn)含在復(fù)雜語(yǔ)言現(xiàn)象背后的文化特質(zhì)和語(yǔ)義共性，就要運(yùn)用NSM理論來(lái)分析。同時(shí)，作者運(yùn)用“艾化腳本”法分析了一些“盎格魯文化”關(guān)鍵詞，并探討了“盎格魯文化”的父鍵價(jià)值及其在英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)法中的反映，強(qiáng)調(diào)了承載歷史的英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)言和文化在當(dāng)今世界的重要地位。
