【摘要】：Lakoff Johnson认为隐喻是人类思维、行为、言语的方式;隐喻的实质是通过另一类事物来理解和经历一类事物。本文以概念隐喻理论为基础,对从《老友记》和《武林外传》中收集到的概念隐喻进行对比研究,其目的就是分析中英概念隐喻的始源域,对比始源域的相似性和差异性,并从文化角度探寻其相似性和差异性的原因。本论文以概念隐喻理论为理论框架,隐喻映射为研究方法从中美最受欢迎的情境喜剧《武林外传》的前二十集和《老友记》的前三季中共收集到汉语隐喻157条和英语隐喻141条；并按照不同的源域将其分为三类,其中结构隐喻156条,方位隐喻63条,本体隐喻79条。论文具体分析了中英语言中概念隐喻的源域,比较其差异性和相似性,并从文化角度寻找影响其差异或相似的原因。通过对比分析,得出以下结论。第一,验证了汉语的抽象概念也是通过从始源域到目标域的隐喻映射建构的。第二,证实了英汉语言中同一概念的隐喻的源域之间存在着相似性和差异性。第三,由于人类所共有的生理基础和共同的生活经验,英汉民族对同一概念有着相似的理解,因而在英汉语言中对于源域的主要表达是相似的,但因为受不同文化模式的影响,对源域的具体描述存在一定的差异。影响其差异性的主要因素有：①宗教和哲学思想,其中汉文化中的道教和佛教,英文化中的基督教是差异的主要根源②自然环境③文学典故和历史事件④社会习俗。
[Abstract]:Lakoff Johnson holds that metaphor is the way of human thinking, behavior and speech, and the essence of metaphor is to understand and experience one kind of thing through another kind of thing. Based on the theory of conceptual metaphor, this paper makes a comparative study of the conceptual metaphors collected from Friends and Swordsman, the purpose of which is to analyze the origin domain of conceptual metaphor in China and England, and to compare the similarity and difference of the original source domain. And from the cultural point of view to explore the similarities and differences of the reasons. Based on the Conceptual metaphor Theory, this thesis uses the metaphorical mapping method to collect 157 Chinese metaphors and 141 English metaphors from the first 20 episodes of the most popular sitcom in China and the United States, the Swordsman and the first three seasons of Friends. There are 156 structural metaphors, 63 orientational metaphors and 79 ontological metaphors. This paper analyzes the source areas of conceptual metaphors in Chinese and English, compares their differences and similarities, and looks for the cultural reasons that influence their differences or similarities. Through comparative analysis, the following conclusions are drawn. First, it verifies that the abstract concept of Chinese is also constructed by metaphorical mapping from the origin domain to the target domain. Secondly, it is proved that there are similarities and differences between the source domains of the same conceptual metaphors in English and Chinese. Third, due to the common physiological basis and common life experience of human beings, the English and Chinese people have similar understanding of the same concept, so the main expressions of the source domain are similar in English and Chinese, but because of the influence of different cultural models, There are some differences in the description of the source domain. The main factors affecting the difference are the religious and philosophical thoughts of 1: 1, in which Taoism and Buddhism in the Han culture and Christianity in the English culture are the main sources of the difference 2 the natural environment 3 literary allusions and historical events 4 social customs.
