Abstract:
Language in Use: Metaphors in Non-Literary Contexts is a kaleidoscope of
studies born from the belief that there is always something more to say about
metaphor. What unites the pieces of this kaleidoscope is that all chapters
rely on conceptual metaphor theory. As such, they bring together applications
of this theory (and some of its further developments) in a variety of contexts
and types of discourse, against a multitude of cultural backgrounds.
The book is structured into two sections. The first, Metaphors at play and
work, is dedicated to the use of metaphors in everyday language. Particular
attention is paid to metaphors of, and in, translation and specialised
jargons, and color terms-driven metaphors. The second, Living with metaphors,
builds on metaphors in private discourses, including diaries and life stories,
and in public ones, pertaining to the political arena, advertising, media
campaigns, the foreign language teaching environment, and the film industry.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and
as such can receive donations through the eLinguistics Foundation,
which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal
Tax number is 45-4211155. These donations can be offset against
your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only).
For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial
advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department
and sending us a form that the eLinguistics Foundation fills in and
returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
