| Nicknames have existed in ancient China,and they are named "take all the body near,take all the things far".They are widely used in pragmatics and have strong cultural connotations.However,there are few studies on nicknames in China until the 1980s.In recent years,with the gradual maturity of linguistic theories,considerable achievements have been made in the study of nicknames related to them.In contrast,most scholars focus on the description of nickname as a linguistic symbol,but ignore the interpretation of the cognitive model of its naming,so the depth and breadth of the special study of nickname as the research object is still limited.Following the nicknames of the Tang and Song dynasties,the nicknames of the figures of the Republic of China show strong motivation,latent dominance,times and culture,and their formation is the product of individuals’ cognition of the natural,social and spiritual attributes of the characters.In view of the drawback of the previous works and the important value of nickname research,this paper will be selected when the unique charm of the period in Chinese history,the Republic of China,with period character nicknamed as the research object,trying to Lakoff theory of idealized cognitive models and domain wy events to promote cognition model theory,build up the event domain idealized cognitive models,and with this theory as the instruction,In order to reveal the cause of the nickname of the figures of the Republic of China in a deeper level,this paper makes a further exploration in the field of naming cognition.The paper is divided into five parts:The first part is the introduction,focusing on reviewing and commenting on the multidimensional research of modern Chinese based on nicknames,and briefly explaining the theoretical background and research framework of the whole paper.In other words,inspired by idealized cognitive model and event domain cognitive model,this paper tries to construct a relatively complete "event domain idealized cognitive model" theory as a guiding theory to analyze the nickname cognitive model of characters in the Republic of China.The second part is the basis of the "Republic of China nicknamed after a cognitive model" analysis,namely propositional structure and image schema two cognitive modes in the role of nickname after a process of the Republic of China,both based on the experience of philosophy,was also used as the basis of the event domain idealized model,the cognitive subject to the characters of the Republic of China "behavior" and "the end" process to clear awareness of the present.Through the analysis of naming elements in the schema,we can better distinguish the types of data and identify the specific mapping pattern.The third part of "character nickname metaphorical mapping mode of the Republic of China" as the focus of this study,sorting and summing up the metaphorical mapping type of character nickname of the Republic of China,analyzes the features of metaphorical mapping,at the same time with specific corpus as an example,detailed analysis the event domain mapping of metaphor theory of idealized cognitive models in the application of nickname after a practice of the Republic of China.The fourth part is "Metonymy mapping model of nicknames of People in the Republic of China".By analyzing the types of metonymy mapping of nicknames of people in the Republic of China,the characteristics of metonymy mapping are summarized in the process of metonymy mapping,so as to reveal its deep cognitive structure.The fifth part is the summary of the whole paper,sorting out the cognitive pattern and formation path of nicknames of figures in the Republic of China,reflecting on the shortcomings in the process of discussion,in order to provide some enlightenment for the future study of nicknames and other proper names. |
