Abstract:

The papers in this collection document the work of the first research project
on metaphor that incorporates the findings of Frame Semantics, Conceptual
Metaphor Theory, and Construction Grammar with Corpus Linguistics techniques
for the analysis of linguistic expressions of metaphor in very large natural
language corpora. Under severe constraints, the MetaNet project, based at the
International Computer Science Institute designed and populated a
sophisticated and accessible repository of conceptual metaphors, developed a
formalization for Conceptual Metaphor Theory, and created tools and techniques
for the automatic identification and analysis of the linguistic expression of
metaphor. For those interested in metaphor, be that from a linguistic,
literary, poetic, cognitive, or computational perspective, this book is a
must-read. Originally published in Constructions and Frames 8:2 (2016).
