INTRODUCING METAPHOR
Introducing Metaphor
is an accessible introduction to the different ways in which
metaphor permeates all areas of language, and other methods of communication,
covering both theoretical and practical approaches to the analysis of texts.
Combining a variety of approaches to this widely studied subject, the book provides a
thorough grounding in metaphor and word meaning, theories on the processing and
understanding of metaphorical language, and metaphor in other languages and
translation.
Knowles and Moon draw on a wide selection of authentic examples to explore
metaphor in relation to text, discourse, and society. Metaphors are examined in a range of
contexts such as politics, sport, and advertising, while literary metaphor is demonstrated
through fiction and poetry. A final section covering non-verbal metaphor looks at
metaphor in art, cinema, and music, further demonstrating metaphor theory in practice.
Featuring suggestions for further reading on topics in each chapter, and an appendix
for small-scale research investigations into metaphor,
Introducing Metaphor
will be
invaluable to undergraduate students of English Language, Linguistics, and Literature.
