《表征——文化表象与意指实践》读书笔记 《表征——文化表象与意指实践》这本书中，重点在于前半部分对于文化的认识和对于意义的理解，以及语言作为表征的系统是如何运作的。 “意义永远是一种对话，永远只能部分的被理解，永远是不平等的交换。[1]所谓“只可意会，不可言传。”就是此意，而对于同一事物，不同的人“意会”角度与程度不尽相同，所以才导致理解差异与不平等。意义并不是被内在于事物中，它是被建构出来的，意义的产生经过媒介的生产表达。 而霍尔又提出“在所有这些不同的机构场合中，意义得以产生和循环的最具优势的一个‘媒介’就是语言。”[2]关于语言，语言是作为一个表征系统来运作的，各种语言都是“表征的系统”，所以表征即是通过语言产生意义。《牛津英语简明辞典》也给出此词的两个相关意义：第一，表征某物即描绘或摹状它；第二，表征还意味着象征、代表。这两个意义给我们提供了表征的范围，即具象和抽象。具象是头脑里具有所表征的事物的具体形象，

《黃色牆紙》 夏洛特•佩金斯•吉爾曼著 楊曉照譯 注1：該文本英文版由1973年對1899年初版的再版掃描成電子文本。該1973年版本由女權出版社出版。 注2：該手抄本最初用于史蒂芬•雷頓教授1997的春季課程“1865年以來的美國文學”。 第一章 像John和我這樣的普通人竟保護著祖傳的夏季禮堂，這真是件稀罕事。 這是一所殖民地豪宅，世襲財産，讓人感受到浪漫的幸福，然而卻幽藏著太多的未知命運，我想說那是一座鬧鬼的豪宅。 我還敢大膽地宣布那裏必定有些什麽怪事發生。 不然為什麽這麽廉價就出租這豪宅？又為什麽這麽久了仍無人問津？ John為我的多慮而嘲笑我，婚後還巴望那些怪事發生。 John實際上是一個極端主義者，他對信仰的事情毫無耐心，把它們當作迷信一起的恐懼。他公開嘲諷那些形而上的抽象言論，因為它們既看不見，也摸不著。 他是個內科醫生，可能（我本不想把這些告訴一個活人，但這是死亡的文書，況且說出來對我也是精神上的安慰）這就是我無法早點重拾健康的原因。 你看，他甚至根本不相信我是病態的！ 可我又能怎麽辦呢？
