'Based on Chapter One of Carpentaria by the Australian Aboriginal writer Alexis Wright,and through examining the seemingly incoherent language features, the present study has found that Australian Aboriginal "Dreaming" worldview not only underpins the writer’s mental coherence, it also underlies her discourse coherence, that is, Aboriginal "Dreaming" worldview has the iconic relevance with her discourse world. It is maintained that only by understanding the writer’s "Dreaming" worldview and by taking it as a cognitive structure achieving the reader’s interaction with the writer and with the text, can the reader sort out the coherence embedded in the unconventional text to construe a coherent story world with the incoherent language material. "Dreaming " worldview enables the reader to understand the theme,appreciate the literature effect and experience aesthetic feelings.
'本文以澳洲原住民作家亚历克西斯·赖特的《卡彭塔利亚湾》第一章为例,通过分析文中貌似不连贯的语言现象,说明"梦幻"世界观是作者建构心智连贯的认知基础,是作品语篇连贯的底层代码,与作者创造的语篇世界存在象似性关联。读者只有了解作者的"梦幻"世界观,使之成为作者-文本-读者互动的认知桥梁,才能厘清偏离规约文本的隐性连贯脉络,从而将不连贯的语言材料建构成连续的故事世界,达到解读文本思想内涵、感知文学效果、体验审美情感的目的'
