  • '老' refers to the old man with the characteristics of being aged in the original meaning 'to be aged' (adjective), which is a metonymy of 'substituting the whole with a part'. In combination with nouns, '老' uses a lot of metaphorical expressions that are understood through animals closest to the attributes of people with aged characteristics, plants and objects. '老' can be extended to the meaning of 'the survival time, duration, recognition time, and existence time of a person, animal, plant, or object are long', or 'the survival time is over', which can be said to be a metonymy of 'substituting cause with result'. An experienced target respected by people on a positive level and a target with banal thoughts, habits, nature, and personality on the negative level can also be conceptualized and expressed as '老'.

  • This paper deals with the polysemous phenomenon of perception verbs in terms of metaphor and metonymy and suggest a model of cognitive semantic structure for them. English perception verbs are often used for representing a mental, cognitive activity as well as representing a physical, perceptive activity. This paper looks for a basis for the polysemous use in the creative system of metaphor and metonymy, especially in the meaning extension function of mind-as-body metaphor. English perception verbs show a good example of a metaphor of domain transfer from physical domain to mental or cognitive domain. This paper suggests the conceptual chain and the semantic structure for the perception verb to show the possibility of polysemy and contextual modulation.

  • The purpose of this study is to interpret Korean traditional space as text on the basis of Structuralism. The process of this study is illustrated as follows: At first, this research contains basic concepts and theories of Structuralism and discusses the possibilities of typological approaches in Korean traditional space interpretation. Secondly, As typological structure of traditional space, spacial and visual expressive characteristics in traditional residential space based on traditional thoughts of Koreans formed with inherent consciousness are considered with Hjelmslev's Structuralism and Wonhyo's Whajaeng theory. Finally, This study tries conceptual analysis based on Lacan's Metaphor and Metonymy emerged from unconscious mechanisms about interpretation and induction of the traditional spacial structure for contemporary Application. Structure is a group of elements forming a covariant ensemble. From this point of view, this study validates that texts are understood when methods that bring back to the creative processes and intentions are found by Text Hermeneutics.

  • With the progress of social economy and science and technology, network media technology has developed rapidly, China has ushered in the network information age, and the network buzzwords emerged to reflect the interaction and influence between language and society. The network buzzwords of "X+ ren "indirectly show the social psychology and value orientation of modern people with their unique structural characteristics, semantic connotation and cultural deposits, and so on. Based on this, we have conducted a multi-angle investigation on the network buzzwords "X+ ren". This paper first analyzes the structure types and syntactic functions of the lexical model of "X+ ren ", then makes a semantic analysis of the lexical model of "X+ Ren ", and finally investigates the causes and influences of the popularity of "X+ ren ". Through the investigation, we believe that "X+ ren "will continue to grow, and "X+ ren" will continue to attract the attention of the academic community.

  • 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.

  • Modern poetry begins as criticism of modernity and, by so doing, rejects its idea of time. Modernity emphasizes sequential, linear, and irreversible time and progress. Williams rejects the modern view of time, and attempts to substitute literature for history assuming that literature can take us into the immediacy of time. His poetry asserts the true moment of experience as an immediacy, of words co-existent with things. He suggests that modernity and its idea of time already led to World War I and could clearly lead to an actual, manmade apocalypse with continued technological progress. Already in the 1920s, Williams sensed that he was living in a world where such an end could come all true, which is why Spring and All, his greatest early achievement, begins with a parody of the modern apocalypse. Throughout the work, Williams criticizes "crude symbolism" and expresses his longing to annihilate "strained associations," for he believes that the metaphoric or symbolic association is related to order, the center, and the traditional concept of time itself. The metonymic model of Spring and All substitutes a self-reflexive, open-ended, and indeterminate structure of time for the linear and closed one. Instead of supplying an end, Williams only asserts the rebirth of time and attempts to arrive at immediacy while attacking the mediacy of traditional art. His characteristic use of fragmentation and abrupt juxtapositions disrupts the reader's generic, conceptual, syntactic, and grammatical expectations. His radical poetic experiments, such as the isolation of words and the disruption of syntax, produce a sense of immediacy and force the reader to confront the presence of the poem. His destruction of traditional forms, of the tyrannous designs of history and time, opens up rather than closes the possibility of signification, and takes us into a moment of beginning while disallowing temporal distancing. Spring and All, as a criticism of the modern idea of time, asks us to view Williams's work not as an ahistorical text but as a cultural subversion of modernity.
