韩礼德在1985年出版的《功能语法导论》一书中酋次提出“语法隐喻”这一概念,

:第一,BBC共语政治新闻中语法隐喻有什么特征?第二,

通过数据分析,本研究发现:BBC英语政治新闻中存在着大量的语法隐喻(概念隐

而导致级转移。语法隐喻在BBC英语政治新闻中发挥了信息压缩功能、经验重建功能以
及客观性功能。
本研究分为以下五部分:
第一章是率研究的总体介绍(概述了乖研究的研究背景、研究目的和本文的结构。
第二章是文献回顾,介绍了与本研究相关的理论基础和实证研究文献,包括韩 L德
的语法酶喻理论和困内外其他学者对语法隐喻的研究。本章还回顾与陈述了科技语篇和
广告语篇中的语法隐喻现象。
第三章是研究设计(其中包括了研究问题、语料的收集、研究方法和步骡以及判断
本研究语料中的语法隐喻的标准。
第四章是对新闻语料的分析,是本文的核一13部分。首先,以韩礼德的语法隐喻理论
为标准,对选取的十五篇BBC官同上的政治新闻语料中的语法隐喻进行数据统计(分析
各个类型的语法隐喻是如何在BBC英语政治新闻中分布的(从而探究语法隐
喻在BBC英
语政治新闻中的特点。其次,分析了在语法隐喻过程中是如何引起级转移的。最后(本
研究分析了语法隐喻在政治新闻语篇中的三种功能:信息压缩功能、经验重建功能以及
客观性功能。
第五章是结论部分。概括了本研究的丰要发现,同时总结了本研究的不足之处并对
以后的研究提出了一些建议。
语法隐喻在BBC英语政治新闻中被广泛的使用,它可以使新闻记者在有限的篇幅内
向读者传达更多的信息,同时也可以增加新闻的客观程度,从而树立新闻的可信性、真
实性和权威性(总之,语法隐喻的分析为BBC英语政治新闻的研究提供了一个新的视角。
