for us, they packed up their few worldly possessions ?for us,they toiled in sweatshops?for us, they fought and died? ?the capital was enemy was snow wasstained with 在現(xiàn)代英語中,反復(fù)(repetition)通常被用來表達(dá)強(qiáng)烈的感受,展示壓抑的情感或是強(qiáng)調(diào)某物的重要性(胡曙中,1993)。在奧巴馬的就職演說詞中,有多個詞如“危機(jī)”等被反復(fù)使用。具體分析如下:通過分析上表可以看出,總統(tǒng)在演說中多次提到我們以及表示危機(jī)、精神和奮斗等意義的詞語。通過反復(fù)的強(qiáng)調(diào),使整個國家的聽眾感受到總統(tǒng)戰(zhàn)勝危機(jī)、繼續(xù)推進(jìn)國家發(fā)展的決心和信心。在演說詞中,較之于對“threat”的輕蔑語氣,奧巴馬更青睞“work”一詞,這也清楚而且強(qiáng)烈的表達(dá)出了他對于當(dāng)前國家經(jīng)濟(jì)狀況的政治態(tài)度和決心。與其他詞相比,“we”是使用次數(shù)最多的一個單詞。在這一個個的我們當(dāng)中,聽眾感受到與演說者的一種強(qiáng)烈的親密聯(lián)系,整個國家仿佛一個緊密團(tuán)結(jié)的整體,應(yīng)當(dāng)共同努力、共同奮斗以及共同前行。由此,演說的目的也就達(dá)到了。有魅力的語言是一定是充滿韻律的。頭韻是英語語音修辭手段之一,它蘊(yùn)含了語言的音樂美和整齊美,使得語言聲情交融、音義一體,,其開頭的音節(jié)有同樣的字母或聲音,以增強(qiáng)語言的節(jié)奏感(熊莉句子結(jié)構(gòu),2004)。每種文體的寫作都要考慮文字讀起來是否流暢和有節(jié)奏,總統(tǒng)的演講稿也不能例外。恰當(dāng)?shù)倪\(yùn)用壓頭韻的修辭手段,將會是的演說詞的語言抑揚(yáng)頓挫、富有節(jié)奏感,從而起到感染氣氛和增強(qiáng)效果的作用。二.宗教特色宗教是西方文化不可或缺的組成部分。在歷次的就職演說中,總統(tǒng)們通常都會希望借助上帝的力量使得他們的演說更加充滿吸引力和感染力。這也正是政治演說通常帶有明顯的宗教色彩的原因。奧巴馬在他的就職演說中,多次直接引用圣經(jīng)中的句子來表達(dá)其政治觀點(diǎn),目的在于使得本次演說更加具有說服力,鼓勵民眾樹立對新政府迎戰(zhàn)危機(jī)、重建更美好未來的信心。the godgiven promise that all are equal,all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure ofhappiness.? we are a nation of christians and muslims,jews and hindusand nonbelievers...’ in this sentence, the presidents standis shown by mentioning most of the main religious believes in the usa , whichwould benefit the unity of the different religious believers and the lesseningof religious conflicts.?...with eyes fixed onthe horizon and god’s grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift offreedom and delivered it safely to future ,奧巴馬總統(tǒng)祈求上帝的賜福,號召民眾將上帝所賦予人類的自由之權(quán)世代相傳,無所畏懼迎戰(zhàn)一切困難。三.句式結(jié)構(gòu)與日常會話、廣告詞和新聞報(bào)道等不同,總統(tǒng)就職演說在句式結(jié)構(gòu)上也有獨(dú)特的要求中國論文下載中心。在演講中,陳述句居多,而一般很少使用疑問句,原因是雖然疑問句會使得演講的語言生動,但同時(shí)也會削弱演說的嚴(yán)肅性句子結(jié)構(gòu),因而降低演說的信服力(熊莉,2004)。恰當(dāng)?shù)倪\(yùn)用祈使句可以使得演說具有極強(qiáng)的號召力。,為達(dá)到鼓勵民眾為經(jīng)濟(jì)復(fù)興而努力奮戰(zhàn)的目的,很顯然對于當(dāng)前形勢輕描淡寫的描述肯定是不夠的。在這種情況下,他的就職演說必須具備足夠的吸引力和號召力,才能夠挽回瀕臨對政府失去信任邊緣的民眾的心。,他的就職演說更是取得了巨大的成功。這篇就職演說無論在闡述觀點(diǎn)還是文字修飾方面都頗具功力,具有很高的政治價(jià)值和文學(xué)價(jià)值。由于演說詞莊重嚴(yán)肅的獨(dú)特語境,雖然這篇演說是通過口頭方式進(jìn)行表達(dá)的,卻具有較強(qiáng)的書面語特征。本文通過對其就職演說在修辭手法、宗教色彩和句子結(jié)構(gòu)特點(diǎn)等語言特色方面的分析,意在指出修辭手段的熟練運(yùn)用,對演說詞的文體特征的準(zhǔn)確把握以及此演說富有的濃郁的宗教色彩都使它成為英文政治演說中的成功之作,不僅具有很高的欣賞價(jià)值,而且順利地達(dá)到了總統(tǒng)就職演說的政治目的。參考文獻(xiàn)黃任,英語修辭與寫作[m ]。上海:上海外語教育出版社 ,1996。胡曙中,英漢修辭比較研究[m]。上海:上海外語教育出版社, 1993。胡曙中,英語修辭學(xué)[m]。上海:上海外語教育出版社, 2001。熊莉,從就職演說詞看肯尼迪演說的文體風(fēng)格[j]。西南民族大學(xué)學(xué)報(bào):人文社科版, 2004,(6)。王佐良,丁旺道。英語文體學(xué)引論[m]。北京:外語教學(xué)與研究出版社, 1987。徐振忠,英語政治演說詞的宗教色彩[j]?!冬F(xiàn)代外語》,1995,(3)。第三篇:奧巴馬就職演講美國歷屆總統(tǒng)就職演說之第44任總統(tǒng)Barack Obama的就職演講稿Inaugural Address of Barack Obama My fellow citizens: I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this Americans have now taken the presidential words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of , every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forbearers, and true to our founding it has it must be with this generation of we are in the midst of crisis is now well nation is at war, against a farreaching network of violence and economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new have been lost。jobs shed。businesses health care is too costly。our schools fail too many。and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land—a nagging fear that America’s decline is inevitable, that the next generation must lower its I say to you that the challenges we face are are serious and they are will not be met easily or in a short span of know this, America—they will be this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and this day, we e to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and wornout dogmas that for far too long have strangled our remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has e to set aside childish time has e to reaffirm our enduring spirit。to choose our better history。to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the Godgiven promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a must be journey has never been one of shortcuts or settling for has not been the path for the fainthearted—for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and , it has been the risktakers, the doers, the makers of things—some celebrated but more often men and women obscure in their labor, who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West。endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg。Normandy and Khe and again these men and women struggled and sacrificed and worked till their hands were raw so that we might live a better saw America as bigger than the sum of our individual ambitions。gre
