The purpose of this article is to examine internal structures of image schema, which are influential in the hierarchy of blending webs. By analyzing Chinese religious texts through blending webs, I then investigate the existence of a hierarchy in hyper-blends and its role in building meaning in literary texts. The container image schema can be divided into physical (ontology) and valuation areas (epistemology). The schema is actively employed in the self-container metaphor. The physical area (background level of blending webs) is about the self as an object, and the valuation area (activating level of the webs) determines the qualities of the self. Zhunagzi is a story of human beings. By analyzing ‘Free and Easy Wandering’ through the self-container metaphor and hyper-blends, we see that the most crucial meanings of this story are to have an open mind toward changing the self and the emptying of the self.
Abstract
The purpose of this article is to examine internal structures of image schema, which are influential in the hierarchy of blending webs. By analyzing Chinese religious texts through blending webs, I then investigate the existence of a hierarchy in hyper-blends and its role in building meaning in literary texts. The container image schema can be divided into physical (ontology) and valuation areas (epistemology). The schema is actively employed in the self-container metaphor. The physical area (background level of blending webs) is about the self as an object, and the valuation area (activating level of the webs) determines the qualities of the self. Zhunagzi is a story of human beings. By analyzing ‘Free and Easy Wandering’ through the self-container metaphor and hyper-blends, we see that the most crucial meanings of this story are to have an open mind toward changing the self and the emptying of the self.
