基于语料库工具Wmatrix的能源安全话语的隐喻研究

A Metaphorical Study on Energy Security: Cases of Wmatrix

摘要: 概念隐喻是认知语言学的重要概念，基于语料库工具为研究隐喻提供路径与方法。能源安全是能源政策的重要目标，能源安全概念对能源政策制定和危机处理具有直接影响。IEA作为重要能源组织，对能源安全方面具有重要作用。本研究基于语料库工具Wmatrix，对能源安全话语进行隐喻研究，以IEA能源安全报告为语料，探究能源安全话语中概念隐喻具备的特点，并分析这些概念隐喻反映出IEA关于能源安全概念的认知。研究发现，关于能源安全概念隐喻共9种，反映出IEA对能源安全概念的认知从传统安全观向综合能源观的转变。本研究对探究能源安全话语及其概念发展具有重要作用，对于能源安全战略构建具有一定的启示作用。

Abstract: Conceptual metaphor is an important concept in cognitive linguistics, and corpus can provide ac-cessibility for metaphor study. Energy security is an important aim of energy policy, whose con-cept can have a direct influence on energy policy-making and emergency management. As a vital international energy organization, IEA plays a crucial role in energy security. The present study is based on the corpus tool, Wmatrix, and the data of IEA energy security reports, to conduct a metaphorical study on energy security aiming to figure out the cognition of IEA in terms of energy security concept. The study shows that, there are 9 sorts of metaphor in energy security concept, which reflect the transition of IEA on energy security concept from traditional concept to comprehensive concept. The present study implicates the importance of energy security concept, and of energy security strategic construction.
