作者或說話人常常使用形象化的語言來傳遞語言字面意義以外的意義,以取得特殊的表達效果。各種各樣的修辭格是形象化語言的主要構(gòu)成手段。英語中除了metaphor、personification等十幾種最常見的修辭格之外,還存在數(shù)以百計的另類特殊的修辭格或修辭方法,它們對提高語言文字在各種文體中的表現(xiàn)力發(fā)揮著重要作用。這本韓仲謙的《英語情感夸張謬誤語法和隱義辭格考辯》共分八章,較為詳細地解讀了英語情感類、夸張類、謬誤類、語法類和隱義類特殊修辭格,內(nèi)容包括定義、例解和用法討論。
本書的讀者對象為英語專業(yè)的本科生、研究生和語言研究者。
讀者既可以將本書作為一本英語特殊修辭格詞典加以使用,也可以將其作為一本語言學(xué)普及讀本加以參考。
