摘要: 隐喻是一种常见的语言现象。概念隐喻理论认为, 隐喻不仅是一种语言修辞手段, 隐喻反映了人类认知的重要特征:人类的抽象概念系统是以感知觉经验和具体概念为基础发展形成的。根据概念隐喻理论, 主体可以以感知运动经验对抽象概念进行体验式表征与加工。大量研究证明, 抽象概念的加工同对其进行隐喻化描述的身体经验具有关联。这些研究主要涉及空间隐喻、温度隐喻、洁净隐喻、触觉隐喻等。未来的研究应探讨多重隐喻对认知的影响、探索塑造隐喻映射单向作用与相互作用的因素, 并关注概念隐喻理论的应用性等问题。

Abstract: Metaphor is a common linguistic phenomenon. Conceptual Metaphor Theory (CMT) assumes that metaphor is not only just the language we use to communicate: it reflects a cognitive character that sensorimotor experiences and concrete concepts serve as the foundation for the development of more abstract concepts. According to CMT, the sensorimotor information should be an integral part for representing abstract concepts and the sensorimotor experiences also can be activated as the way of abstract conceptual processing. A growing body of work has found that the processes of abstract concepts are linked to the physical experiences that describe them metaphorically. These studies involve spatial metaphor, thermal metaphor, clean metaphor, haptic metaphor and so on. Future researches should focus on the effect of multiple metaphors on conceptual processing, determine how the unidirectional relationship and bidirectional relationship are shaped and develop the application of CMT.
