Abstract:

This volume offers new insights into figurative language and its pervasive
role as a factor of linguistic change. The case studies included in this book
explore some of the different ways new metaphoric and metonymic expressions
emerge and spread among speech communities, and how these changes can be
related to the need to encode ongoing social and cultural processes in the
language. They cover a wide series of languages and historical stages.
