Abstract:

Since the 1980s, metaphor has received much attention in linguistics
in general. Within Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) the area of
'grammatical metaphor' has become increasingly more important. This
volume aims to raise and debate problematic issues in the study of
lexico-grammatical metaphor, and to foreground the potential of
further study in the field. There is a need to highlight the SFL
perspective on metaphor; other traditions focus on lexical aspects,
and from cognitive perspectives, while SFL focuses on the grammatical
dimension, and socio-functional aspects in the explanation of this
phenomenon.
