People use metaphors every time they speak. Some of those metaphors are literary - devices for making thoughts more vivid or entertaining. But most are much more basic than that - they're "metaphors we live by", metaphors we use without even realizing we're using them. In this book, George Lakoff and Mark Johnson suggest that these basic metaphors not only affect the way we communicate ideas, but actually structure our perceptions and understandings from the beginning. Bringing together the perspectives of linguistics and philosophy, Lakoff and Johnson offer an intriguing and surprising guide to some of the most common metaphors and what they can tell us about the human mind. And for this new edition, they supply an afterword both extending their arguments and offering a fascinating overview of the current state of thinking on the subject of the metaphor.
原书为台湾出版,难以入手,故此只得复印版一部。本书是颠覆性的著作,无论是在语言学上还是思维论上。可以说,这样一本书的观念撑起了认知语言学的半片天空,另半片么,可能是兰盖克的《认知语法基础》了。简而言之,他所阐述的基本观念便是我们概念系统的大部分是由譬喻系统...
评分Lakoff和Johnson发现,我们说“三天前”、“基本上”这类表达中,“前”和“上”都实际上是一种比喻,但是这种表达由于平常、基础,变成了一种常规表达。由此他们引申出几种基础的metaphors的类型,比如orientational emtaphor,structural metapher,就是用空间结构来描述一个...

评分《我们赖以生存的隐喻》是当代语言学经典著作,被视为认知语言学隐喻研究的开端。中译本评语指出:“该书完全颠覆了几千年来人们对于隐喻的狭隘看法,国内外但凡论及隐喻、认知的论文和专著,无不以此为经典。”读过之后,笔者感觉书中的许多观点虽然不能说是重塑三观,因为它...
评分虽然作者有点好大喜功后面扯大到挑战西方哲学传统的地步,某些地方还有点偷换概念的嫌疑,但仍不失为几个月来我读过的最有趣的书。感觉会对做machine learning的人有些启发,当然可能人家早就在做类似的事情了。更奇妙的是,同一段时间在读的「地海传奇」系列中设定的巫术真言系统和这本书的理念完全是相反的。
评分有趣的文字、比喻的起源
评分佳作
评分佳作
评分写得不吸引人,清单式写作的典范嘛…还是认知语言学概论好看
