Abstract(417) PDF(23)
Abstract:
Dingfang Shu, Hui Zhang& Lifei Zhang's Cognitive Linguistics and the Study of Chinese(2019) surveys comprehensively throughout the 30 years of Cognitive Linguistics study in China, which highlights the three turns in Cognitive Linguistics and points out the importance of localization of linguistic theory.It comprehensively combs the hottest trends, research paradigms in Cognitive Linguistics.It is of great value and guiding significance for the localization of linguistic theories.This thesis gives a brief review of the book and its main characteristics such as pioneering, applicability, localization, guidance, critical reflection, striving for change, interdisciplinary integration, and bi-directional interaction.Based upon Cognitive Linguistics and the Study of Chinese, we believe that, researches on the heterogeneity of Chinese facts might be one approach of the theoretical innovation of Cognitive Linguistics.Thus under the guidance of philosophy of New Liberal Arts, a prospect of the localization of Cognitive Linguistics based upon Chinese facts is also drawn from the following four dimensions:research paradigm of philosophy of science, cross-disciplinary integration model, cross-linguistic contrastive verification as well as the combination of synchronic and diachronic research.It is an ecological system for the combination of Cognitive Linguistics and the making of Chinese grammar theories, which fully demonstrates an organic bi-directional interaction of the two:Cognitive Linguistics offers the basic affordance for Chinese grammar studies, and in converse, the study of Chinese grammar might feed in return for the theoretical innovation of Cognitive Linguistics.The deeper Cognitive Linguistics theory goes, the stronger its theoretical robustness might become.The thesis might offer a certain reference value for the study of Chinese, both for Cognitive Linguistics Circle and for the other linguistics schools in China.

Abstract(338) PDF(20)
Abstract:
Studies on readability in America date back to the early 20th century, when Thorndike[1] the phycologist published the first book in which English words were arranged in accordance with their frequencies.This set a trend toward researches of this paradigm based upon words as a variable.As yet, readability researches have been continuing across the world.Fathered by M.A.K.Halliday, systemic functional linguistics(SFL) is a powerful linguistic theory widely used to solve language or language-related problems.Readability is not an SFL concept, so researches in this regard represent a new perspective.To fuse the concept into the theory, this article first tries to capture the essence of readability through revisiting such aspects as its definitions and dimensions, influencing factors, and the traditional approach to it;and then goes on to discuss to what extent SFL can expand the scope of readability studies, with reference to Halliday's accounts of“meaning”, and of the three orientations of the theory in the early 21st century.It is concluded that readability and SFL are complimentary in that the latter provides a theoretical framework for the former, while the former broadens the research scope of the latter.Future explorations will serve as a touchstone of the validity of SFL as a general theory of language, an appliable linguistics, and a general theory of meaning or natural science of meaning.

Abstract(344) PDF(27)
Abstract:
Ecolinguistics investigates how language could establish ecologically identities, aiming to explore and examine whether those identities are of ecological appliability or not.And the studies are to help people resist identity which might encourage ecologically-destructive behavior, and re-shape and maintain identity which could encourage people to behave in ways to protect the whole system of ecology.To gain some insights into the identity of Alibaba Group, this paper attempts to investigate the ecological appliability of the identity constructed by Alibaba Group based on the corpus of the letters to shareholders written by Jack Ma from 2015 to 2018 via NVivo 11.The result shows:(1) The identities of Alibaba Group are“Weilai(future)”, “Zhongguo(China)”, “Jishu(technology)”, etc.; (2) The identities constructed are of ecological appliability.Of the established ecological identities, Alibaba Group would play an active role in the construction of a well-balanced economy.Besides, ones who have invested and would make decisions to invest into Alibaba Group, would be shaped by the company's ecological identity as well.Such ecological identity would encourage men to protect the well-balanced economy, and further the community of human society.

CHE Ming-ming
2020, 36(3): 104-110.
Abstract(355) PDF(23)
Abstract:
As one of the representative native Chinese translation theories, the Variation Theory put forward by Huang Zhonglian postulates that translation based on the Variation Theory is focused on original and entails the condensed information, thus being conducive to retaining the similar core information of the original text, which is why it is more applicable to scientific documents.Resorting to a creative mode of thinking, the present paper firstly explores the theoretical motivations of the Variation Theory itself and also expounds on the rationale of the Variation Theory as the criterion for literary translation.Then, based on the Variation Theory and using Xu Yuanchong's translation of Su Shi and Lu You's Ci-poems as the research objects, this paper analyzes and illustrates the explanatory power of the Variation Theory for the translation reproduction of the images and artistic conceptions in Chinese classical poetry.
