视觉语法视角下CGTN纪录片《美丽中国》中的再现意义分析

A Representational Meaning Analysis of CGTN’s Documentary Beautiful China from the Perspective of Visual Grammar

摘要: 以CGTN纪录片《美丽中国》为研究对象，基于Kress & van Leeuwen的视觉语法理论，聚焦再现意义这一维度，探讨其如何通过视觉、文字模态协同建构意义。研究通过典型案例分析法聚焦纪录片中的再现意义构建，系统解析叙事过程与概念过程的运作机制。结果表明，《美丽中国》实现了自然景观与人文传统的有机融合，构建了和谐、传承与可持续发展的叙事逻辑，为多模态话语分析在纪录片研究中的应用提供了实践参考。

Abstract: Taking CGTN’s documentary Beautiful China as the research object and drawing on Kress & van Leeuwen’s theory of visual grammar, this paper focuses on the dimension of representational meaning to explore how meaning is constructed through the coordination of visual and verbal modes. Employing a case study approach, the research analyzes the construction of representational meaning in the documentary, systematically examining the operational mechanisms of narrative and conceptual processes. The findings indicate that Beautiful China achieves an organic integration of natural landscapes and cultural traditions, constructing a narrative logic of harmony, heritage, and sustainable development. This study provides a practical reference for the application of multimodal discourse analysis in documentary research.
