Abstract:

This book offers a cognitive-semiotic approach to metaphoricity of visual
representations in static visual narratives referred to as comics. It
implements this approach in an exploration of conventionalized visual signs
depicting diegetic situations, motion events, sound events, and diverse
psychological experiences in such narratives. With his focus on the
intersection of comics studies, conceptual metaphor theory, and Charles
Sanders Peirce’s theory of signs, the author analyzes a broad array of
attested data retrieved from comics exemplifying various publication formats,
generic conventions, and cultural traditions. His exploration situates the
metaphoricity of the analyzed visual signs against the backdrop of their
overall semiotic makeup and in relation to the metaphoricity of their
linguistic counterparts.
