Research On The Syntax Exhibition And Theme Expression Of The Newspaper's Chief Title

Title is a long-discussed argumentation. With the thriving of newspaper media, the attention paid to newspaper's title is going without saying. Because of its indispensable status and special characteristic, newspaper's title has been a topic that can't be ignored by the research on the news language. The chief title is totally an independent component in the title unit, which carries the most important responsibility to sketch out the affair and gather up the content. However the past research usually lost sight of the chief title. This text will pick up the chief title and get back its deserving identity. Penman has a mind to stress the chief title, the language feature of which is the main topic for discussion. Through the holds of the chief title 's language form, we can evaluate and look into the standing of the chief title in the newspaper on a new score.At the present time, the research on title is generally put up form two sides. On one hand, study title from the rhetoric angle. Judge which is correct or wrong, and appraise which is excellence or inferior. So the research mostly belongs open-type. It is full of randomness. On the other hand, do research concentrating on the title's wording-characteristic. Concern the classifying of the title's styles, based on which, the system of title is set up. Still, observing and the analyzing remain arbitrary. The subjectivity maximally limits the study's reliability. Penman considers it a must to give a picture of the title's form and content before founding a title system. Thenproceed to the next step to pursue the material basis and the reasons for their structure-formation.The conceiving of the structure and the probing into of the theory in this text principally involve the following aspect.(1) Demarcate for the title's area. Restrict the number of the investigated titles. All titles discussed come from five kinds of representative newspapers. Such a disposal is due to two accounts. Firstly, cut down the randomness and subjectivity as can as possible. Secondly, make a comprehensive survey, construct the corresponding relation between the news' content and the title's style.(2) In order to set up a form system of title, and in allusion to the handicap in the research on title, we give some pertinent settings. Avoid the interleaving which stands in the differentiating phrase from sentence, and simple sentence from complicated sentence. Stress the function, what means giving a prior consideration to pragmatic. Renew the existing meaning of the nonlinguistic symbol.(3)Make an all-round description from syntax, semantic and pragmatic. Although this text has not adopted the analyzing way by which we look into title from syntax to semantic, then to pragmatic step by step, we grasp the elements of news and make them center, which relate the title's surface structure, deep meaning and the expressive function.(4)Not giving up explaining. Seek the reasonable explanation for all kinds of regular linguistic facts in the titles. Not only give attention to the expressive effect, but also track down the reason and the basis, which back the linguistic feature of title. Resorting to the type of writing, the frequency of use, the texture of Chinese, we try to seize the title's particularity.
