Abstract Cognitive stylistics provides a framework for analysis of conceptual metaphors in literature, as a way to approach fictional characters’ mind styles. Here, cognitive linguistic tools are applied to characterize the metaphorical expressions of emotion in James Joyce’s A portrait of the artist as a young man. A number of conceptual metaphors were identified in relation to anger, lust, shame, pride, fear, happiness and sadness, among others. Creative uses of language came to light, both by means of novel conceptual mappings and original linguistic realizations of more conventional metaphors. Original expressions revealed aspects of mind style of the novel’s main character, particularly in relation to his struggle with negative emotions. For example, anger and resentment are conceptualized as a sort of covering that could be effortlessly detached from the body, while shame-related feelings are experienced as threatening floods. From a methodological perspective, this study illustrates the advantages of cognitive stylistic tools for the analysis of literary work.

詹姆斯·乔伊斯(James Joyce)的《青年画家肖像》中的情感隐喻

摘要认知文体学为分析文学中的概念隐喻提供了一个框架,是一种处理虚构人物心理风格的方式。在这里,运用认知语言工具来刻画詹姆斯·乔伊斯(James Joyce)的《艺术家的肖像》中情感的隐喻表达。在愤怒,欲望,羞耻,自尊,恐惧,幸福和悲伤等方面,发现了许多概念隐喻。语言的创造性使用通过新颖的概念映射和更常规的隐喻的原始语言实现而得以展示。原始表达揭示了小说主人公的心态,特别是与他与负面情绪的斗争有关。例如,愤怒和怨恨被概念化为一种可以轻松脱离身体的遮盖物,而与羞耻相关的感觉则被视为威胁洪水。从方法论的角度,本研究说明了认知文体工具在文学作品分析中的优势。
