【内容摘要】

从语用学角度分析TED演讲中的言语幽默自二十世纪八十年代以来,许多语言学家开始从语用学的角度研究言语幽默,并将幽默的研究带入一个新的领域。而演讲是一种重要的传播载体,是思想表达的精华集合。而《TED演讲》则是演讲的精华,随着其发展,愈来愈受到英语学习者和英语语言工作者的重视,成为许多学者研究的重心。
本文采用定性研究的方法,在合作原则和关联理论这两大语用学理论的框架下。以TED演讲中的言语幽默现象为语料,来研究言语幽默的产生机制。通过分析发现这两种理论对言语幽默产生机制的解释有很大的不同,违反合作原则,最大关联与最佳关联的偏差都会产生言语幽默,同时关联理论也是对合作原则的扩充。通过研究TED演讲中的言语幽默在理论上拓展了语用学理论的使用范围;在实践中,不仅能帮助听众更好地理解TED演讲中的幽默,同时帮助他们在日常生活以及演讲活动中创造出更多幽默语言。
