讲座摘要:
以心理距离、利益取向与主体涉入为标准,缓和性话语的语用功能可分为心理规避、情感安抚、关系亲善与说服。它们之间的区别在于,心理规避涉及说话人的主—客体距离,是利己的;情感安抚涉及主体间单向趋同,是利他的;关系亲善涉及主体间双向隐性趋同,是既利他也利己的;说服功能涉及主体间双向显性趋同。在这四种功能中,情感安抚启动双向主体间趋同,促成关系亲善与说服功能的实现,是缓和性话语的首要功能。它的特殊作用还在于为听话人视角转换、类比推理提供了前提条件。这说明功能磋商过程受到移情制约。
英文摘要:
Pragmatic Functions of Mitigators and Their Empathic Constraint
Abstract: On the criteria of psychological distance, interest orientation and subjective involvement, four pragmatic functions of mitigators can be identified, i.e., evasion, pacification, solidarity building and persuasion. Their main differences are: evasion merely reflects the speaker’s psychological distance and is egoistic, pacification features unidirectional intersubjective convergence of psychological distance and is altruistic, solidarity building has to do with bidirectional, but implicit, intersubjective convergence and is both altruistic and egoistic, while persuasion is characterized by explicit bidirectional convergence and mirrors altruism-invited egoism. Among these, pacification is the primary function as, by initiating the process of bidirectional convergence, it makes other functions possible. Pacification further plays a unique role in perspective-taking and analogical reasoning, which is evidence that the negotiation of mitigating functions is subject to the constraint of empathy. Keywords: psychological distance; interest orientation; intersubjective convergence; pragmatic function; empathic constraint 欢迎各位师生参加!
