Description
Corpus-based Approaches to Metaphor and Metonymy by Anatol Stefanowitsch and Stefan Thomas Gries explores how corpus data can be used to investigate cognitive linguistics questions about conceptual mappings. The authors examine various issues, including the coherence and function of metaphorical models, the interaction between form and meaning, and the relationship between metaphor and discourse. They also present a range of corpus-linguistic methods for investigating these topics, such as corpora annotated for semantic categories and patterns in concordances. This volume offers new insights into the relationship between language as a conceptual phenomenon and language as a textual phenomenon, combining corpus methods with a cognitive-linguistic view of metaphor and metonymy.
