Where Metaphors Come from: Reconsidering Context in Metaphor
ISBN: 9780190656713 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Where Metaphors Come From, Zoltan Kovecses proposes a metaphorical grounding that augments and refines conceptual metaphor theory according to which conceptual metaphors are based on our bodily experience. While this is certainly true in many cases of metaphor, the role of the body in metaphor creation can and should be reinterpreted, and, consequently, the body can be seen as just one of the several contexts from which metaphors can emerge (including the situational, discourse, and conceptual-cognitive contexts) - although perhaps the dominant or crucial one. Kovecses is a...

Language, Mind, and Culture: A Practical Introduction
ISBN: 9780195187205 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. How do we make sense of our experience? In order to understand how we construct meaning, the varied and complex relationships among language, mind, and culture need to be understood. While cognitive linguists typically study the cognitive aspects of language, and linguistic anthropologists typically study language and culture, Language, Mind, and Culture is the first book to combine all three and provide an account of meaning-making in language and culture by examining the many cognitive operations in this process. In addition to providing a comprehensive theory of how we can...

Metaphor and Emotion: Language, Culture, and Body in Human Feeling
ISBN: 9780521641630 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Many researchers claim that emotions arise either from human biology (i.e., biological reductionism) or as products of culture (i.e., social constructionism). Are human emotions best characterized as biological, psychological, or cultural entities? Zoltan Kovecses demonstrates how cultural aspects, metaphorical language, and human physiology are part of an integrated system. This book challenges the simplistic division between the body and culture by stressing how human emotions are to a large extent "constructed" from individuals' embodied experiences in different cultural settings. Hb ISBN...

Metaphor in Culture: Universality and Variation
ISBN: 9780521844475 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. To what extent and in what ways is metaphorical thought relevant to an understanding of culture and society? More specifically: can the cognitive linguistic view of metaphor simultaneously explain both universality and diversity in metaphorical thought? Cognitive linguists have done important work on universal aspects of metaphor, but they have paid much less attention to why metaphors vary both interculturally and intraculturally as extensively as they do. In this book, Zoltan Kovecses proposes a new theory of metaphor variation. First, he identifies the major dimension of metaphor...
