Denotative Meaning Research Articles

Structural and semantic aspects of phraseme in the works of fra Martin Mikulić

Phrases whose problems are in this paper are excerpted from the works of Martin Mikulić, a Herzegovinian Franciscan writer. Mikulić left behind a great literary wealth worth scientific observation - especially in the field of phraseology. Namely, the paper deals with the semantic aspect of phrases created through different tropes. The phrases created through metaphor, ie. metaphorical formulas where, for example, the loss of a head is equal to the loss of life. Other examples have been created according to the same principle, where body parts appear as components of phrases and other various components can be found. In addition to phrases created through metaphor, metonymy, synagogue, the material also confirms phrases created through periphrasis, hyperbole, euphemism, irony, antithesis and comparison. In addition, attention in this paper was focused on the definition, form and structure of phrases. Thus, the material confirms phrases with one full word, phrases with two or more independent words with or without auxiliary words, as well as phrases of a sentence. In the scientific literature, many authors share the opinion that the structure of phrases is usually solid, which is not shown by the examples from the corpus where a certain type of change in the structure of phrases was made. Apart from variant forms in which there is no change in meaning but in expression, so it is one or more alternative forms of phrases - other modifications are reflected in the fact that the order of components in the phrase is not solid and stable, that it is possible to replace one component the second as well as in changes of syntactic nature (prepositional-case connection), then the addition of certain components as well as the reduction of components, etc. The corpus confirms phrases whose phraseological components have lost their denotative meaning as well as examples where some of the phraseological components retain their denotative meaning.

Lyric Poetry and the Disorientation of Empathy

AbstractIn the present essay, I argue that empathy constitutes the mode in which lyric poetry registers in the readers. However, unlike in prose, where the reader is allowed to empathize with the characters via the mediation of the narrator, in poetry, as Jonathan Culler and a number of other theoreticians of the lyric have indicated, the reader assumes the position of the speaker, thus becoming areperformer of the text. This positioning, in turn, creates a situation in which the text, rather than representing a mental state, embodies it and in the process of being enacted impels the reader to internalize this state. I then move on to complement this distinction between poetry and prose by noting the fact that critics who explore how empathy is employed in reading fiction appear to depart from assumptions of comprehensibility and stability of the representations of characters’ mental states. This is shown in the analysis of the work of such critics as Suzanne Keen and Liza Zunshine. By contrast, in lyric poetry, empathy is both necessitated and simultaneously disoriented through the discontinuous, open-ended nature of the poetic text. As a result, the reader is perpetually made to feel into the speaker’s evocations of mental states but his or her empathic efforts are thwarted by the operations of the text in which a given affect is being evoked and disarticulated at the same time. This dialectic of empathy and disorientation is a dynamic process that can take various forms. In the last section of the present essay, I analyze three poems, »Punishment« by Seamus Heaney, »The Loaf« by Paul Muldoon and »Geis« by Caitríona O’Reilly, in order to show how the empathic impulse is both triggered and disoriented by the tensions between the poems’ denotative meanings and their formal features, mainly prosody and rhyme scheme. Thus, a tentative conclusion is that lyric poetry’s formal complexity and its non-mimetic nature enter into a dynamic relationship with the propositional content – a dynamic which contributes to the continual disorientation of our empathic capacity that is the essential form of our performance of the poetic text. This tension may manifest itself in how form and content challenge each other or how they cooperate, which in either case leaves us with a rather uncomfortable feeling of having witnessed not a representation of but an embodied, real-time moment of intimate and essentially aporetic experiential performance.

Evet, ich will! (2009) Film afişlerindeki kültürel kodların göstergebilimsel çözümlemesi

Günümüzde sıklıkla karşılaştığımız kültürel olgulardan biri olan film afişleri, belli bir filmi tanıtmak amacıyla üretilen anlatım araçlarıdır. Film ve potansiyel izleyicilerin ilk karşılaşması afişler üzerinden gerçekleştiği için her afişte filmin konusuna dair bazı ön bilgiler yer almaktadır. Dolayısıyla bireyler afişe bakarak filmin türünü, içeriğini ve oyuncuların kimler olduğunu anlayabilir ve bu ipuçları üzerinden film hakkında genel bir değerlendirme yapabilir. Film afişleri ilk bakışta fark edilen genel bir anlamın yanı sıra, anlatıdaki iletinin içine gizlenmiş olan daha derin ikincil bir anlam içerirler. Kültürel boyutu olan bu derin anlam, afişte bulunan görsel ve dilsel kodlara eklemlenmiştir. Bireyler bu ikincil anlam üzerinden afişte gördükleriyle kendi deneyimleri ve kültürlerini özdeşleştirerek filmi izlemeye karar verirler. Tam da bu nedenle film afişlerinde aktarılmak istenen anlam daima gerçek hayatla ilişkilendirilerek üretilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı Evet, ich will! (2009) adlı Alman komedi filmi için hazırlanan afişlerdeki kültürel kodların hangi göstergeler üzerinden nasıl temsil edildiğini ortaya çıkarmaktır. İncelemede anlamlandırmanın düzanlam ve yananlam olmak üzere iki farklı düzeyi bulunduğunu varsayan Roland Barthes (1979) tarafından geliştirilen göstergebilimsel çözümleme yönteminden yararlanılacaktır. Düzanlam, anlamlandırmanın birinci düzeyidir ve bir göstergenin belirttiği anlamın öznel olmayan, değişmez, evrensel öğesidir. Yananlam ise bir göstergenin bağlamlara göre değişen kültürel değerlerin ön planda olduğu çağrışım boyutlarına sahip ikincil bir düzeydir. Afişlerin çözümlemesinde kullanılacak olan yöntemin ilk aşaması dilsel kodların incelemelerine ayrılmıştır. İkinci aşama afişlerde yer alan görsel kodların analizini kapsamaktadır. Üçüncü aşamada dilsel ve görsel kodların çözümlemesinden elde edilen bulguların genel değerlendirmesi yapılarak kültürel kodlara değinilecektir.
