悖论的使用是英国作家奥斯卡·王尔德作品的一大特征,小说《道连·格雷的画像》就是一个典型例子。悖论内涵的理解依赖于语境,且悖论通过具体语境发挥特定的人际意义。基于韩礼德的语境理论,以语旨为切入点探究《道连·格雷的画像》中亨利的悖论话语的内涵和功能,重点选取了婚姻爱情、享乐主义和女性观三个主题。研究结果认为,悖论通过特定语境体现了亨利话语的言外之意、言后效力,并发挥一定的人际意义,揭示了亨利这一维多利亚时代典型人物的性格特征,再现了作者复杂的伦理道德观。
The use of paradox is a major feature of the work of Oscar Wilde, a British writer. The portrait of Dorian Gray is a classic example. The understanding of paradoxical connotation depends on the context, and the paradox through the specific context to play a specific interpersonal meaning. Based on Halliday ’s context theory, this paper attempts to explore the connotation and function of Henry’ s paradox discourse in The Portrait of Doris Gray by using the language as the starting point, and focuses on the three themes of marriage, hedonism and women. The result shows that the paradox reflects Henry’s discourse meaning and rhetoric effect through certain contexts and exerts a certain interpersonal meaning. This reveals the character of Henry, a typical Victorian figure, and reproduces the author’s complex ethics.
