Abstract:

This book is a philosophical guide on metaphor use. Previous research
concerning metaphors has focused on either the theoretical-linguistic problems
or the uses in specific research fields. Although these domains share some
common interests, there has been little cross-communication. The aim of this
volume is to bridge the gap between the theoretical and the empirical side of
the research on metaphor use, by analysing the role of metaphor over different
domains of use. Therefore, while adopting a theoretical-philosophical point of
view, the volume also presents the interdisciplinary connections between
philosophy and other academic areas such as linguistics, cognitive science,
discourse analysis, communication studies, didactics, economics, arts and
political science.
