Abstract

Female devils in Journey to the West present themselves with a variety of images, thus attracting much attention with the aim to clarify their literary and cultural implications. This paper, by pointing out some inadequacy and inaccuracy of previous studies, intends reanalyze the images and implications of female devils in this novel from the perspective of cognitive semantics, believing that such an approach promises an improved and enriched interpretation.
