1、语言学教程第 8 章 语用学8.0 语用学入门语用学入门Pragmatics vs Semanticsn The publication of Saussures work Course in General Linguistics in the early 20th century marked the beginning of modern linguistics and at the same time laid down the key note for modern linguistics,i.e.language should be studied as a self-contai
2、ned,intrinsic system;any serious study of language cannot afford to investigate the use of language and extra-linguistic factors were not to be considered.n 普通语言学教程的尾句:The only true object of study in linguistics is the language,considered in itself and for its own sake.n From then on,this has been
3、the dominant tradition of linguistic study.This is the spirit in which traditional phonology studied the sounds of language,traditional syntax studied the structure of sentences,traditional semantics studied meaning.The meaning of language was considered as something intrinsic and inherent,i.e.,a pr
4、operty attached to language itself.Therefore,meaning of words,meaning of sentences were all studied in isolation from language use.n But gradually linguists found that it would be impossible to give an adequate description of meaning if the context of language use was left unconsidered.But once the
5、notion of context was taken into consideration,semantics spilled over into pragmatics.What essentially distinguishes semantics and pragmatics is whether in the study of meaning the context of language use is considered.If it is not considered,the study is confined to the area of traditional semantic
6、s;if it is considered,the study is being carried out in the area of pragmatics.“句子”与“语句”n 某年某月某日某时,张三说“天在下雨”;这是语句(utterance)。某年某月某日某时,李四也说“天在下雨”;这也是语句(utterance)。张三、李四各自的语句所表现出的共有的、得到普遍承认的东西是句子(sentence)。n 语句是句子在具体语境中的体现或运用。素是位在具体语境中的体现和运用言语音素音位语言语素变体语素词形词语句句子语言运用语言能力Context 语境语境n The notion of cont

8、t the world in general,knowledge about the specific situation in which linguistic communication is taking place,and knowledge aboutneach other.Context determines the speakers use of language and also the hearers interpretation of what is said to him.Without such knowledge,linguistic communication wo
9、uld not be possible,and without considering such knowledge,linguistic communication cannot be satisfactorily accounted for in a pragmatic sense.Sentence meaning and utterance meaning句子意义与语句意义n A sentence is a grammatical concept,and the meaning of a sentence is often the abstract,intrinsic property
10、of the sentence itself in terms of predication.But if we think of a sentence as what people actually say in the course of communication,it becomes an utterance,and it should be considered in the situation in which it is actually uttered or used.So it is possible to tell if“The dog is barking”is a se
11、ntence or an utterance.It can be either.It all depends on how we look at it and how we are going to analyze it.nIf we take it as a grammatical unit and consider it as a selfcontained unit in isolation from context,then we are treating it as a sentence.If we take it as something a speaker utters in a
12、 certain situation with a certain purpose,then we are treating it as an utterance.Therefore,while the meaning of a sentence is abstract,and decontextualized,that of an utterance is concrete,and context-dependent.The meaning of an utterance is based on sentence meaning;it is the realization of the ab

14、当时世界哲学的中心”。How to Do Things with Words By John Austin 1911 1960 背景信息背景信息nWilliam James(18421910)言语行为理论的学术背景言语行为理论的学术背景n20世纪30年代盛行的逻辑实证主义哲学认为,凡不能被证明真伪的陈述都是伪陈述。n受该学说影响,当时的人普遍认为,语言的功能就是陈述事实,其陈述受“真或假”这一标准的检验。例如,“她是第一个登上月球的妇女”、“在月亮的那边,有座3000米高的山”之类的陈述,在当时的逻辑实证主义者看来,都是没有意义的,因为它们均无法检验、无法证实。n莱昂斯(Lyons)指出:“当
15、时的观点认为,唯一对哲学有价值的语言功能是用来作出真假陈述的功能。”理论的发展历程理论的发展历程 n 奥斯汀的言语行为理论在如何以言行事一书中有完整的表述。他先是提出“施事语句”和“述谓语句”区分说,但是,由于“施事语句”概念本身的漏洞以及兴趣的扩展,他感到很难坚持“施事语句”和“述谓语句”之间的严格区分,转而提出一个更为一般的理论(即言语行为三分说)来处理言语行为问题。奥斯汀先后提出的这两个理论,既有联系又有重要的差异。8.1.1 Performatives and Constatives 施事语句与与述谓语句n1.performatives:施事(语)句nThe uttering of t

19、分句的行为本身,是通过句法、词汇和音位来表达字面意义的行为。n言外行为言外行为(Illocutionary act)是指表达说话者的意图的行为,它是在说某些话时所实施的行为。n言后行言后行为(Perlocutionary act)是指通过某些话所实施的行为,或讲某些话所导致的行为,它是语句所产生的后果或引起的变化,它是通过讲某些话所完成的行为。n 根据言语行为理论,我们说话的同时也是在实施某种行为。该理论认为,说话者说话时可能可能同时实施三种行为:n说话行为(locutionary act)n施事行为(illocutionary act)n取效行为(perlocutionary act)n例如
20、,A对B说:“请把那把小刀递给我”。此时,A 所做出的言语行为并不仅限于说话行为本身,即不仅仅传达字面意思,而是在说话的同时,也做出了一个表示请求的施事行为,而B在领会了A的意思后,把小刀递给A,这就完成了取效行为。According to Austins“How To Do Things With Words”,a speech act should be analyzed asa locutionary act:the actual utterance and its ostensible meaning,comprising phonetic,phatic and rhetic acts
21、 corresponding to the verbal,syntactic and semantic aspects of any meaningful utteranceas well as an illocutionary act:the semantic illocutionary force of the utterance,thus its real,intended meaningand in certain cases a further perlocutionary act:its actual effect,whether intended or notnIn the sp
22、eech act theory proposed by John Austin in How to Do Things with Words(1962),an utterance involves not only the simple locutionary act(说话行为)of producing a grammatical sentence,but also an illocutionary force(言外之意)of effectiveness either as an affirmation or as a promise,a threat,a warning,a command,
23、etc.The most explicit illocutionary acts(施事行为)are the performatives,which accomplish the very deed to which they refer,when uttered by authorized speakers in certain conditions:I arrest you in the name of the law;I promise to defend and uphold the constitution.nA perlocutionary act is part of a comp
24、lete speech act,as viewed at the level of its psychological consequences,such as persuading,enlightening,or otherwise getting someone to do or realize something.It is contrasted with locutionary and illocutionary acts(which are other levels of description,rather than different types of speech acts).
