The difference between gesis and western semantics.doc

It is an old and young subjects of language.Since the ancient times, people on the meaning of language essence of interest.The western scholars often semantic theory as its own patent.In fact, in their proposed numerous meaning definition, there are a lot of content already for Chinas ancient scholars said.At the end of the nineteenth Century. Historical comparative linguistics in arisen. Because it has its own theoretical goal, research object and research method, known as the true meaning of modern linguistics.In 1839, the German scholar Reisig Semasiologie first proposed the term.In 1883 the French philologist arrangement, proposed the modern sense of the semantics.In 30 years before twentieth Century, semantics and gradually get rid of the traditional rhetoric concept manacle. From philosophy, psychology, sociology and history of human civilization and other neighboring disciplines of nutrition.On the semantic change of the study.Nineteen thirties to 50s structural linguistics dominant.The linguists attention is focused on the form of the language structure, semantic study has been neglected for a long time.During this period.Saussure (Saussure) structuralist linguistic theory in linguistics field cause a revolution.His heavy structure, light sense.Founded by Saussure structural linguistics theory to other subjects also produced tremendous effect, such as anthropology, sociology, philosophy, psychology, logic, literature, education, mathematics, history, music, aesthetics, architecture, medicine, folklore, religion etc.Structuralism has influenced almost all the fields of Science in the west.Saussures structuralism analysis then has also been used for semantic analysis, forming a structural semantics.In the nineteen seventies since, semantics research got full-scale development.And obtained the important breakthrough.The phase of the study has broken through the traditional semantics in the research level and research methods of relative single situation, presents the interdisciplinary, multidimensional and multilevel characteristics.Chinese Exegetics sprout in the spring before the spring and autumn and the Warring States period, to enter the preliminary stages of development.In the period of.Confucius set up private schools, oral Chinese classical literature to teach.Subsequent to the contention of a hundred schools of thought period, various views teach orally.Ya is Chinas first Chinese reference book, marking the Chinese Exegetics entered the mature stage.In the 220 years to 960 years, China put into training development period.On the historical records and Han notes for the period of Exegetics masterpiece.In the year 960 to the year 1644 (Yuan Ming period).China put into the innovation phase of toddler training.The scholars of Qing Dynasty for exegetical studies achievement most.They explain the meaning of a word, meaning that on roots, the semantic development have innovation insights.They use the rich text knowledge and ancient knowledge of exegetical studies, both has the theory and method, make Chinese Exegetics development becomes China linguistics a specialized disciplineSince 1911 the foot with Chun, learn the vernacular commentary and discipline system establishment stage.During this period.Due to the rising of the new culture movement. The Chinese Exegetics has undergone tremendous changes.To sum up, put science training (Chinese semantics) and Western semantics research development there exist similarities and differences. Its research history of depression through four main stages.Exegesis is comprehensive and practical, and has a system and theory of semantics.Exegesis is a comprehensive discipline. During each period the research content and methods of analysis have bigger difference, and Western semantics has same place already, also have very big difference.Exegesis of the research content is very extensive, in its entire history, it contains much more content than semantics.In the semantic research, exegetics mainly on ancient literature.Focus on the interpretation of words, to explain the word language.On the various annotation method, study on lexical semantic change is more comprehensive, but also on the interpretation and semantic aspects of the study than western study of meaning to a long history.To detailed historical data, works to enrichThe main research contents of Western semantics: the meaning of language itself around a systematic discussion and research, exploring the semantic aspects of theories and laws, they pay more attention to theory construction. More attention to meaning is discussed, and through understanding the meaning to elaborate on the objective world view, exploring the human thinking pattern, thereby further the system of language understanding.So the semantics is more systematic and theoretical.Exegetics and semantics has many differences. But closely related. Tile cross.Therefore, we in study of semantics at the same time, Western semantic theories should be combined, for Chinese and for
