  • 은유와 환유에 의해 생성된 문장들은 합성성의 원칙(compositionality principle)에 맞지 않기 때문에 전통적인 언어학에서 많이 다루어지지 않았다. 그러나, Lakoff(Lakoff & Johnson 1980; Lakoff 1987, 1993)와 그의 동료들에 의해서 은유에 대한 인지언어학적인 접근이 시도되면서 활발히 연구되기 시작했다. 그들에 의하면 인간의 일상언어의 많은 표현들이 은유에 의해서 생성되며, 인간의 인지체계가 개념적 은유 (conceptual metaphor)로 이루어져 있다고 주장한다. 본 논문은 화(anger)의 감정을 나타내기 위한 한국어 표현들을 분석하여 인간의 인지체계의 은유적인 양상을 밝혀보고자 한다.

  • Lakoff's (2002) 'nation-as-family' metaphor suggests that conservatism and liberalism in the United States are based respectively on two different sets of morality, i.e., "strict father" morality and "nurturant parents" morality. He argues that values associated with respective metaphors and political principles derived from them tend to determine certain political attitudes and policy endorsement. Using the priming technique, this study attempted to examine whether "strict father" and "nurturant parents" morality are indeed what underlie very different positions conservatives and liberals take towards people in need. The results supported the Lakoff's idea and demonstrated that, compared to priming "nurturant parents" morality, priming "strict father" morality actually led people to derogate character of those in need and to attribute more responsibility onto them for their economic predicament. This research leads us to reconsider what constitutes politically conservative and liberal attitudes and emphasizes the malleability of political attitudes.

  • This paper is based on the Cognitive Linguistics point of view on metaphor. Metaphors are not a matter of language use or rhetorics but of a conceptual frame, where thoughts work. The conceptual frames can highlight one aspect affecting our lives while hiding the other aspect of the facts. Politicians use metaphors to persuade people and justify their political decisions. Lakoff argues that the Republicans in the U.S. have their own conceptual framework based on the 'strict father model' of the conservatives, which can be found in important political speeches. Political metaphors supporting this view are found in the 'Attack on Iraq Speech' by G. H. Bush in 1991 and 'Operation Iraqi Freedom Address' by G. W. Bush in 2003.

  • This paper attempts to analyze Korean proverbs with pap 'rice' which plays an important role in the Korean community. I examine to analyze the data under the various frameworks: Grice, lakoff and Langacker. Proverbs use the contrast in order to focus the speaker's intention and to get the convince from hearers. I limited to analyze coordinate sentences since these distinctively show the contrast and the relation. In terms of the contrast and the relation, the semantic interpretations of pap can be easily taken. These semantic interpretations are classified under the Lakoff's metaphors.

Is it Possible for Johnson & Lakoff & Nunez's Experientialism to be a Philosophy of Mathematics Education? (대안적 수학교육 철학으로서의 체험주의 탐색)

  • In This Paper, I call Johnson & Lakoff (1980; 1999)'s Experientialism or Experiential Realism or, Embodied Realism, Nunez(1995; 1997)'s Ecological Naturalism as Experientialism and try to investigate the possibility of their Experientialism to be a philosophy of mathematical education. This possibility is approached in the respect with the problem of objectivism and relativism. I analyzed the epistemological background of embodied cognition first and then mathematical epistemology of experientialism. Experientialism shares its Philosophical position partly with Dewey and Merleau-Ponty. Experientialists deny the traditional hypothesis of philosophy as such separability of subject and object, and of body and rationality and also They have better position of epistemology than that of Hamlyn, and of Social Constructivism. Therefore, They guarantee wider range of mathematical universality than Hamlyn and Social constructivist. I conclude that the possibility of Experientialism to be a philosophy of mathematical education depends on the success of its supporting the practical study on mathematics education.

  • 신체적 체험은 인간의 사고를 형성하는 바탕이 된다. 문제해결 경험은 인간 사고를 한층 더 발전시킨다. 특히 사물의 형태와 움직임을 관찰하고, 그러한 환경에 감각-운동 신경을 발달시키는 체험에서 획득된 개념들은 추상적 사고에서 중심적 역할을 한다는 언어심리학의 가설이 흥미롭게 제기되어 연구되어 오고 있다. 개념체계로서 수학, 언어로서 수학, 의미 만들기로서 수학 , 문제 해결로서 수학 등 수학학습과 관련된 수학의 여러 모습에 대한 새로운 시각을 갖게 한다. Lakoff와 Johnson는 신체적 체험이 가져온 이러한 개념체계들 '메타포'라고 부른다. 메타포의 '개념' 수준으로의 확장은 analogy의 의미를 확장시켰다. 수학학습에 신체적 체험으로 존재하는 개념들은 수학적 개념에 이르는 학습을 새롭게 보게 한다. 본 연구는 metaphor와 analogy의 인지과학 및 언어과학에서 연구되고 있는 일반적 의미들을 제시하고 수학학습에서의 적용될 수 있는 방법들을 제시한다.

  • This paper is to give a brief introduction to a new discipline called 'conceptual metaphor' and 'mathematical metaphor(Lakoff & Nunez, 2000) from the viewpoint of mathematics education and to analyze the metaphors at 4th graders' mathematics classroom as a case of conceptual metaphors. First, contemporary conception on metaphors is reviewed. Second, it is discussed on the effects and defaults of metaphors in teaching and learning mathematics. Finally, as a case study of mathematical metaphors, conceptual metaphors on the concepts of triangles at 4th graders' mathematics classrooms are analyzed. Students may reason metaphorically to understand mathematical concepts. Conceptual metaphor makes mathematics enormously rich, but it also brings confusion and paradox. Digging out the metaphors may lighten both our spontaneous everyday conceptions and scientific theorizing(Sfard, 1998). Studies of metaphors give us the power of understanding the culture of mathematics classroom and also generate it.

  • The matter of understanding mathematical concepts in learning mathematics is one of the most important issues in mathematics education. There have been so many studies about it but the more practical study has been asked. When we Think using intuitional models such as examples, figures of speech, situations and activities, it is supposed that the major elements of cognitive mechanism are prototypes, analogies, metaphors and metonymies. In this paper, we tried to examine Rosch's prototype theory, the studies about analogies in congnitive psychology, Lakoff and Johnson's metaphor theory from the viewpoint of teaching mathematics, and then tried to analyze examples, analogies, analogical transfers, metaphorical expressions, metonymies in middle school mathematics text books used in Korea now.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the nature of pre-service elementary teachers' metaphors on mathematics textbooks. Their metaphors describe individual and collective patterns of thinking and action on mathematics teaching and learning. To analyze their metaphors, qualitative analysis method based on Lakoff and Johnson's theory of metaphor (1980) was adopted. Metaphors on mathematics textbooks were elicited from 161 pre-service elementary school teachers through writing prompts. The writing prompt responses revealed three types and thirteen categories: As Type I, there were (1) 'Principles', (2) 'Summary', (3) 'Manual', (4) 'Encyclopedia', (5) 'Code', (6) 'Guidelines', and (7) 'Example'. As TypeII, there were (9) 'Assistant', (10) 'Friend', (11) 'Scale', and (12) 'Ongoing'. As TypeIII, there was (13) 'Trap'. Among these categories, 'Guidelines', 'Assistant', and 'Ongoing' were the most frequently revealed. These results indicate that the relations of mathematics curriculum, textbooks, and classrooms are not a unilateral way but should communicate with each other.

  • Lakoff(1986) claim that sequential fading alone suffices to sanction ATB violations cannot be supported in Korean verbal coordination of TP, since extraction from the conjunction of TP in Korean is impossible regardless of whether the conjuncts are interpreted sequentially or non-sequentially. However, ATB violations are allowed in the coordination of Non-TP, only when the conjuncts are interpreted sequentially. 1 will argue that Non-TP, in coordination are ambiguous between a conjunct and adjunct analysis. Furthermore, a claim made here is that the distinction between the sequential and non-sequential reading in Non-TP coordination is a distinction made by syntax, while the sequential vs. non-sequential reading in TP coordination is derived from semantics or pragmatics.
