【摘要】：本文以认知语言学中莱考夫和约翰逊的概念隐喻理论作为基础,对美籍华人女作家谭恩美的代表作《喜福会》中的概念隐喻进行分析。作者通过小说语言表达和叙事结构等方面总结归纳文本中出现的概念隐喻,并结合故事主题,文化内涵及作者背景等元素,进行深入探究分析,试图阐释作品中概念隐喻的使用源于谭恩美特殊的成长经历。作为美籍华人的她接受中西方两类教育,在跨文化的环境中成长形成了独特思维方式和认知机制。这部自传体小说中,家族第一代从战乱的中国辗转移民到达以白人文化为主流的美国,父母和儿女们都经历着中西方文化、思维方式和生活方式之间的碰撞与融合,使得作品中的概念隐喻运用有其特殊之处。本文从认知角度探讨这些概念隐喻的源域和目标域,探寻其经验基础。作家的概念体系形成及其构建文本时概念隐喻的使用是与其成长经历、生活环境、社会文化背景等因素的关系是密不可分的。本文运用概念隐喻理论来分析《喜福会》的文本,希望能够帮助读者更加客观、深刻地理解小说所表达的文化内涵与主题思想。正如《我们赖以生存的隐喻》一书中提到,我们的生存离不开隐喻,隐喻贯穿于我们的思维和行为中。希望本文对用概念隐喻理论分析文学作品有一定的启示作用。

The formation of the writer's conceptual system and the use of conceptual metaphor in the construction of the text are closely related to the factors such as his growing up experience, living environment, social and cultural background and so on. This paper uses the conceptual metaphor theory to analyze the texts of Joy Luck Club in order to help the readers to be more objective.
