-
摘要: 文化定型是跨文化交际讨论较多的一种表述,由于和歧视和偏见关联密切,关于定型的讨论由来已久。研究从功能句法的角度展开讨论,并考察名词化、评价以及及物性系统中的关系过程和心理过程等要素在构建文化定型中的作用,目的是运用功能语言学的框架厘清文化定型表述的句法特征。文章认为从功能句法考察文化定型,有助于我们对其保持觉察,并且对跨文化交际话语中的文化定型有更为清晰的认知。Abstract: Cultural stereotypes are widely studied in cross-cultural communication and their relation to prejudice and discrimination makes them an enduring object of study.
