Abstract

Emotional knowledge corpus will provide data support for deep understanding of text. However, the problems of incomplete coverage and lacking of emotional skeleton are found from semantics, and from the perspective of pragmatic, the scarcity problem is more serious. To adapt literary works, we expand the existing emotional lexicon, and construct sentimental phrase knowledge corpus and discourse-based sentimental collocation networks from the perspective of semantics. In addition, the rhetoric is an important component of pragmatics, so the emotional knowledge corpus based on the rhetoric is constructed. Finally, with the emotional knowledge corpus, a comprehensive and accurate answer for the reading and appreciating question is obtained.
