摘　　要：修辞学结构论是一种专门研究语篇描写的理论,以篇章结构为研究重点,致力于通过分析语篇结构阐述作者的交际意图在语篇中是如何实现的。通过观察修辞结构关系的类别与分布状况,能够了解语篇的核心思想、连贯特性以及写作特色等基础信息。本文将采用修辞结构理论的描述框架对Peter Bichsel的短篇小说Die Tochter的语篇结构进行描述和解释,思考修辞结构理论对于该小说的语篇结构分析能力。根据分析,修辞结构理论可以分析出结构段的中心思想,但是无法把握整篇小说的主旨;修辞结构较多且连接十分紧密,连贯性较强;作者多用背景关系和解释关系进行叙述,先交代背景,再塑造人物,风格细腻。Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST) is a comprehensive set of theories dedicated to describing natural discourse. It emphasizes the structure of texts and aims to elucidate how authors’ communicative intentions are realized through textual analysis. By examining the types and distribution of rhetorical structural relationships, one can gain insights into the central idea, coherence features, writing characteristics, and other fundamental aspects of a text. This paper employs the descriptive framework of Rhetorical Structure Theory to describe and explain the text structure of Peter Bichsel’s short story Die Tochter and reflects on the efficacy of RST in analyzing the textual structure of novels. The analysis reveals that RST can effectively dissect the central idea of individual structural paragraphs but struggles to encapsulate the overarching theme of the entire novel. Furthermore, the rhetorical structures are numerous and tightly interconnected, contributing to a strong sense of coherence. The author frequently utilizes background and explanation relationships in the narration, first establishing the context and then developing the characters, resulting in a nuanced and refined style.
