隐喻和意象是诗艺的载体。它们将诗人内心无形的思想情感具形化,并触发读者想象,重构符合诗境的画面,从而实现语篇的连贯与衔接。本文从隐喻衔接和意象衔接两个层面对丁尼生的诗作《尤利西斯》诗篇功能特征进行阐释,深度揭示其主题和艺术性。 Metaphor and image are the carrier of poetic art. They shape the intangible thoughts and emotions of the poets and trigger the imagination of the readers and reconstruct the pictures that conform to the poems, so as to achieve the coherence and convergence of the texts. This paper explains the functional features of Tennyson’s poem “Ulysses” from both the metaphoric and image cohesion perspectives, revealing the theme and artistry in depth.
