Abstract:

In this ambitious and wide-ranging book, Andrew Goatly looks at how we use 
metaphor to communicate meaning. Combining insights from functional 
linguistics and relevance theory, he provides a powerful model for 
understanding how metaphors work in real communicative situations, how we 
use them to communicate meaning and how we process them. 

Drawing on substantial linguistic corpora including literary works by William 
Golding, TS Eliot, Ezra Pound, George Eliot and AS Byatt, articles from 
national newspapers and extracts from popular and advertising culture, this 
book:


*examines the distinction between literal and metaphorical language 

*surveys the means by which metaphors are expressed in texts 

*locates the interpretation of metaphor in its social context 

*contains tasks and suggestions for further work

The second edition has been revised to include relevant examples, updated 
texts and new lexical data. It discusses recent developments in metaphor 
research by key figures such as Deborah Cameron, Jonathan Charteris-
Black, Alice Deignan, Rachel Giora, Veronika Koller, Zoltan Kovecses, 
Andreas Musolff and Elena Semino. 

The Language of Metaphors provides the ideal introduction to metaphors for 
all students and researchers with an interest in communication, language, 
literature and psychology.
