+ADw-P align+AD0-justify+AD4-The organisers are happy to announce the fourth version of
Researching +ACY-amp+ADs- Applying Metaphor (more known as RAAM). RAAM IV will be hosted
in Tunisia, and its theme is Metaphor, Cognition, and Culture. The RAAM IV event
is a follow-up of the successful conferences held in York (1996), Copenhagen
(1997), and Tilb+ACY-uuml+ADs-rg (1999). In continuation of the previous editions, RAAM
IV intends to keep active the two fundamental components of researching and
applying metaphor. In keeping with the previous RAAM's concern with both
monolingual and interlingual approaches to metaphor, RAAM IV aims to attract and
encourage a broad range of contributions on metaphor, cognition, and culture
from researchers and educationalists of different persuasions. Contributions are
welcome that address topics relating to verbal and/or non-verbal metaphor,
metaphor in cognition, metaphor in culture, and metaphor in cognition and
culture both in literary and non-literary texts. +ADw-/P+AD4APA-B+AD4-
