摘  要: 一个旨在解释各种交际现象的交际理论不但应能够解释成功的交际,而且应能够解释由各种原因所引起的失败的交际。本文把由各种原因造成的无效交际,确切的说应是无效关联交际,称之为无关联交际。根据关联理论,交际双方认知语境的不同是导致交际失败的重要原因。基于以上两点,本文拟从关联理论出发,以多部文学作品为选材,把语篇连贯置于动态的交际过程之中,探讨了文学作品中人物之间无关联交际的语篇连贯机制。 本文首先对语篇连贯研究作了简要回顾。然后,本文详细阐述了论文的理论基础—关联理论,并归纳总结了关联理论的优势,进而展现了关联理论在阐释文学作品中人物之间无关联交际的语篇连贯机制方面的独特视角。其次,本文在前人研究的基础上对语篇连贯进行了新的阐释,并探讨了连贯的本质以及关联与连贯的关系。接下来,本文重点探讨了文学作品中人物之间无关联交际的语篇连贯机制。经分析得出造成文学作品中人物之间交际失败的原因主要有六点,即词汇模糊、情境因素、社会因素、语用模糊、情感因素和感知能力的差异。然后,本文又进一步对这六大因素进行一一例证并分析得出,当把这些不具备关联性的对话放置在作品主题这一大语境下时,读者就不难发现,作者是刻意选择这些无关联对话的,目的是传达其交际意图,即体现和突出作品的主题思想。如此,作品不仅传达了作者的交际意图,而且实现了语篇整体的连贯性。最后,本文在总结部分提出了本研究的应用,即可以作为教学策略应用到英美文学教学中去。 本文以关联理论为框架,结合丰富的实例,通过分析文学作品中人物之间的无关联交际现象,旨在说明这些无关联交际是如何服务于作品主题,进而实现语篇的连贯性,体现作品的文体风格。从而论证了关联理论不论对口语交际还是对文学语篇,不论对关联交际还是对无关联交际都具有强大的解释力。 A theory of communication aiming to explain various communication phenomena should explain not only successful communications but also those failed ones caused by various factors. Irrelevant communication, or rather, ineffective relevant communication, is defined as ineffective communication caused by many different factors. According to Relevance Theory, failed communications are caused by the different cognitive contexts in each other's mind. Based on the two points above, this thesis, with several authentic literary works as materials, aims to explore the discourse coherence mechanism of irrelevant communication in literary works from the perspective of relevance theory by putting discourse coherence in a dynamic communication process. First of all, this thesis presents a literature review of discourse coherence. Next, this thesis introduces the theoretical foundation of the study—Relevance Theory in great detail, generalizes its strengths, and then brings up its unique perspective on discourse coherence mechanism of irrelevant communication in literary works. After that, based on previous studies, this thesis gives its own interpretation of discourse coherence and explores the nature of discourse coherence and the relationship between relevance and coherence. And then, this thesis focuses on the discourse coherence analysis of irrelevant communication in literary works. Through an analysis of ineffective exchanges between characters, it is found that there are altogether six factors, namely lexical ambiguity, situational elements, social factors, pragmatic ambivalence, emotional factors and perceptual ability that may block the success of character communication. And by way of further exemplification and analysis of those six factors respectively, this thesis concludes that when putting those ineffective exchanges into the context of the story theme, readers can easily find that they are in fact intended by the writer to convey his or her communicative intention. In this way, it can be said that those literary works succeed in not only conveying the writer's communicative intention but also achieving discourse coherence. Finally, this thesis proposes that this study can be applied to the teaching of British and American literature. Under the framework of Relevance Theory and with rich examples of irrelevant communication between characters in literary works, this thesis aims to explain how the ineffective relevant communication in literary works serves the story theme and makes a textual alternation from irrelevance into relevance, and hence a textual coherence would be achieved, and a distinct literary style will come into being, thus proving that relevance theory has great explanatory power on whether oral communication or literary texts, whether relevant communication or irrelevant communication.
