报告内容:
The talk starts with a brief overview of sense and sense-making with reference to cohesion, coherence and intertextuality. Based on a word-by-word close analysis, it charts the semantic coherence of a classical Chinese poem《夜雨寄北》by 李商隐, followed by a mapping of the text's metaphorical coherence in terms of ontological metaphors. Using the poem as a case example, we will examine (1) the profiling of a poetic world sustained by both semantic and metaphorical coherence, (2) the interplay between images for the focalization of an image, and (3) the significance of a focal image for the profiling, and by extension the translation, of a poetic text.
