Abstract:

The volume addresses a number of closely connected methodological,
descriptive, and theoretical issues in the study of metonymy, and includes a
series of case studies broadening our knowledge of the functioning of
metonymy. As regards the methodological and descriptive issues, the book
exhibits a unique feature in metonymy literature: the discussion of the
structure of a detailed, web-based metonymy database (especially its entry
model), and the descriptive criteria to be applied in its completion. The
theoretical discussion contributes important challenging insights on several
metonymy-related topics such as contingency, source prominence, “complex
target”, source-target contrast / asymmetry, conceptual integration,
hierarchies, triggers, de-personalization and de-roling, and many others. The
case studies deal with the role of metonymy in morphology, monoclausal if only
constructions, emotional categories, and iconicity in English and other
languages, including one sign language. Beside cognitive linguists, especially
metonymy researchers, the book should appeal to researchers in A.I., sign
language, rhetoric, lexicography, and communication.
