A Pragmatic Study Of The First-person Pronouns In Kenji Miyazawa's Fairy Tale

This thesis takes the first-person pronouns in the 55 fairy tales of Kenji Miyazawa as the research object,and uses a combination of quantitative analysis and comparative analysis to examine the works of the first-person pronouns,to investigate the Treatment expression,and to analyze the reason of transform or not transform about the first-person pronouns in the five eras.The conclusions of this paper are as follows:Among the 25 first-person pronouns appearing in Kenji Miyazawa’s fairy tales,「ぼく(boku)、仆(boku)、私(watashi)、おれ(ore)、わたし(watashi)」 were used in the five eras.However,the frequency of use is different from each period,there is a difference.Among them,「私(watashi)」was used mostly in the student and the Shangjing era;「仆(boku)」 was used mostly in the teacher’s era and the era of bed;「ぼく(boku)」was used mostly in the era of the Raxudan Association.From the perspective of gender,the users in the five eras of the session are basically male,with 1321.and there are fewer female users,only77.According to the classification of "person,sentimental thing,and others",the first-person users in the era of the Raxudi Association were mostly “men with sentimental objects”,and the first-person users in the other four eras tended to be“person-men”.The first person in the entire narrative of the five times is basically male,and women users have only one case in the student period.When investigating the classification of social classes in the first person,we can see that the student area is biased towards "middle",the Shangjing era is biased towards "below",the teacher era is biased towards "up",and the Raxudan Association era is based towards "below".The area of bed is biased towards "up".When analyzing the reason of Miyazawa’s first-person picking,we can see that the user’s subjective intention of the standing needs,choosing the first person called the listener or the second person,building a positive or negative position to achieve its own needs.
