Research on Knowledge Representation of Chinese Folklore Narrative Forms Based on Propp Theory
[Purpose/Significance]Combining the semantic approach with professional theories in the field of literature and organizing the knowledge of plot content and textual context of literary resources is of great signifi-cance in solving the existing problems and dilemmas in the knowledge representation of Chinese folklore resources.[Method/Process]Based on Propp theory,this paper proposed the research path for the digital narrative folklore,and chose The White Snake as an example for empirical research.First,a text corpus was constructed,and the nar-rative elements in the plot were deconstructed to excavate the explicit and implicit knowledge in the plot,and to an-alyze the complex and diverse semantic relations and narrative logic among the plots.Secondly,taking the narrative elements of the story as the description objects,the semantic information of folklore resources was reorganized and revealed,the ontology model of folklore was constructed,and the semantic knowledge description framework at the plot narrative level was improved.Finally,the visual narrative display of plot semantic knowledge was realized from the perspective of plot presentation and plot correlation.[Result/Conclusion]Based on the narrative elements,this paper constructs a narrative-oriented semantic association framework to realize the knowledge representation and association presentation of the folklore plot level.This framework enables the multidimensional narrative and visualization presentation of the resources,and demonstrates the application effect of the method in this paper.
