Due to his identification with Taiwan and his outstanding performance, Wang has been viewed as the super star and national hero in Taiwan, creating the “Chien-Ming Wang phenomenon”. By using the Critical Metaphor Model (CMM), the approach incorporates Conceptual Metaphor Theory and Critical Discourse Analysis, this study examines how the “Chien-Ming Wang Phenomenon” in Taiwan is represented through metaphors in newspaper discourse. Our analysis focuses on the entailments and implications of the metaphors concerning Wang in different newspapers in Taiwan. Moreover, I explore the ideology reflected through the use of metaphors concerning Wang and analyze the factors account for the representations of the “Chien-Ming Wang Phenomenon” in different newspapers in Taiwan. The data is collected from three major Mandarin-language newspapers with distinct political stances in Taiwan, which are the Liberty Times (LT), the United Daily News (UDN), and the Apple Daily (AD). This study hypothesizes that “the Chien-Ming Wang phenomenon” will be represented through metaphors not only differently but also similarly in different newspapers depending on different aspects of ideologies. The results show that there are four kinds of representations of metaphors concerning Wang, which include (1) similar metaphors with similar implication, (2) different metaphors with similar implication, (3) similar metaphors with different implications, and (4) different metaphors with different implications. Based on the four categories, this study demonstrates that the “Chien-Ming Wang phenomenon” is represented through metaphors with both “similar” and “different” implications in newspaper discourse in Taiwan. his study suggests that different aspects of ideologies held by the newspapers are considered one of the most important factors contributed to the similar or different implications. When the focus is on the national identity or political agendas from the perspective within Taiwan itself, metaphors concerning Wang are represented with different implications to implicitly strengthen the political ideologies held by the newspapers; while the focus is on Wang’s condition or how Wang attracts the international attention viewing from the perspective beyond Taiwan, the implications of the metaphors are much more similar in different newspapers. This study proposes that ideologies and the characteristics of the newspapers, the influential power of baseball domain, and the bi-directional relationship between political and sports in Taiwan, all account for the representations of the “Chien-Ming Wang phenomenon” in newspaper discourse in Taiwan.TABLE OF CONTENTS CKNOWLEDGEMENT ………………………………………………....iHINESE ABSTRACT ………………………………………………...iiiNGLISH ABSTRACT………………………………………………….vABLE OF CONTENTS……………………………………………….viiIGURES………………………………………………………………..ixABLES ………………………………………………………………...ixHAPTERSHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION.………..……………………………..1.0 Overview…………………………………………………………………………..1.1 Background Information…………………………………………………………..4.1.1 The Chien-Ming Wang Phenomenon……………………………………………4.1.2 The baseball history in Taiwan…………………………………………………..5.1.3 The current political situation and international status of Taiwan……………….8.1.4 The light/glory of Taiwan: Chien-Ming Wang in Major League Baseball……..10.2 Aims of this study………………………………………………………………...11.3 Theoretical considerations and Research methods……………………………….14.4 Significance………………………………………………………………………16.5 Organization of the study…………………………………………………….......18HAPTER 2 LITERATURE REVIEW..…………………………….19.1 Overview on Conceptual Metaphor Theories and Critical Discourse Analysis….19.1.1 Conceptual Metaphor Theory…………………………………………………..20.1.1.1 Why is metaphor ideological? .........................................................................21.1.1.2 Metaphor shapes thoughts …………………………………………………...22.1.2 Critical Discourse Analysis …………………………………………………....24.2 Previous Studies on the ideological use of metaphor……………….....................26.2.1Gender…………………………………………………………………………..27.2.2 Race…………………………………………………………………………….28.2.3 Politics………………………………………………………………………….29.3 Previous Studies on sports metaphors……………………………………………32.4 Summary ………………………………………………………………………...36HAPTER 3 THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK AND RESEARCH METHODS……………………………………………………………...37.1 Theoretical Framework: The Critical Metaphor Model (CMM)…………………37.1.1 Textual-level metaphor identification ………………...………………………..38.1.2 Textual-level metaphor identification ………………………………………….39.1.3 Social-level metaphor explanation …………………………………………….41.2 Data …………………………………………………………..………………….43.2.1 Newspaper discourse …………………………………………………………..43.2.2 Source .…………………………………………………………………………44.3 Data selection…………………………………………………………………….47HAPTER 4 DATA ANALYSIS…………………………………….52.1 Similar metaphors with similar implications……………………………………..53.1.1 Burden metaphor: EXPECTATION IS BURDEN………………………...53.1.2 Commodity metaphor: WANG IS COMMODITY…………………........…….59.2 Different metaphors with similar implications…………………………………...63.2.1 WANG IS LEADER and WANG IS FIGHTER………………………………63.2.2 WANG IS INDUSTRY………………………………………………………...66.2.3 WANG IS STOCK MARKET AFFECTER…………………………….……..66.3 Similar metaphors with different implications…………………………………...69.3.1 WANG IS GLOWING OBJECT……………………………………..……...…69.3.2 WANG IS LIGHT OF TAIWAN: analogy and contrast……………………....74.3.3 WANG IS LIGHT OF TAIWAN: Who is the “LIGHT-BASKER” ? ………...83.3.4 WANG IS ROLE MODEL …………………………………………………….85.3.5 POLITICS IS BASEBALL ……………………………………………………86.3.6 WANG IS COMMODITY: Who is the CONSUMER? ……………………….90.4 Different metaphors with different implications…………………………………95HAPTER 5 DISCUSSION……………………………………….101.1 The underlying ideologies and characteristics of the newspapers……………....102.2 The influential power of baseball domain in Taiwan…………………………...108.3 The bi-directional relationship between sports and politics…………………….110.4 Conclusion ……………………………………………………………………...111HAPTER 6 CONCLUSION ……………………………………..113.1 Major findings…………………………………………………………………..113.2 Contributions of this study……………………………………………………...115.3 Future Research ………………………………………………………………...116EFERENCES……………………………………………………………………...118IGURESigure 2.1 The Discourse-level analysis ………………………………..……..40igure 2.2 The Social-level analysis ………………………………………..…42igure 5.1 Different perspectives and the ideologies held by the newspapers contributed to the implications of the metaphors in the three newspapers ……………………………………………………....106igure 5.2 The interrelated factors that account for the representations of the “Chien-Ming Wang Phenomenon”……………………………….112ABLESable 3.1 The distribution of data selected in LT, UDN, and AD …………....49application/pdf822102 bytesapplication/pdfen-US王建民台灣棒球批判隱喻模式分析 (CMM)報紙論述Chien-Ming WangTaiwanbaseballCritical Metaphor Model (CMM)newspaper discoursehttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/179802/1/ntu-98-R95142007-1.pdf
