要解读文学作品中,首先要识别文学作品中的隐喻现象并且了解隐喻的构建和解读的工作机制。Fauconnier认为隐喻建构和解读的过程是四个心理空间的相互作用。隐喻的理解是概念结构的相互整合并受社会背景的影响。在《黑暗的心》这部作品中康拉德运用大量隐喻,对其主要隐喻的解读有助于我们理解作者揭开殖民主义者各种不道德的罪行的真正写作意图。 To interpret literary works, we must first identify the metaphorical phenomenon in literary works and understand the working mechanism of metaphor construction and interpretation. Fauconnier argues that the process of constructing and interpreting metaphor is the interaction of four psychological spaces. Metaphor is understood as the integration of conceptual structures and by the social context. In the Dark Heart, Conrad employs a great deal of metaphor to interpret his major metaphors, helping us to understand the true intention of the author to unravel various immoral crimes of the colonialists.
