文章以应用语言学类英汉学术书评中投射结构的使用为切入点,考察书评语篇中评价意义的跨文化差异。文章对所收集的语料进行量化统计与语篇分析,结果发现:(1)与英语书评相比,汉语书评投射结构的使用相对较少,尤其在著者行为和作者立场上存在显著性差异;(2)投射结构使用的差异体现出汉语书评评价潜势与英语书评相比更倾向于经验意义,而非评价意义。这些差异可能源于不同学术文化、学科社团内人际关系和写作者声音的影响。
Based on an analysis of the use of projections in English and Chinese academic book reviews in Applied Linguistics, this study aims to explore the evaluative meanings in the review discourses from a cross-cultural perspective. The quantitive and textual analyses of the corpus data reveals that compared with English academic book review, there exists a marked difference in a less frequent use of projections in Chinese book reviews, specifically, in the categories of Author’s Acts and Writer’s Stance, and that a reduced interpersonal investment is made in Chinese book reviews with a preference for the experiential meaning potential, in contrast with the evaluative meaning potential. These differences are interpreted in reference to the nature of academic culture, interpersonal relations in the disciplinary community and the authorial voice.
