Linguistic Field(s): Semantics 

Call Deadline: 15-Jul-2022 

2nd Call for Papers:

In recent decades, research in cognitive semantics has almost exclusively
focused on linguistic metaphors and their conceptual grounding. This scope
has, however, changed today due to the emergence of and increase in the
multimodality of communication. Consequently, scholars dealing with metaphor
and metonymy from the angle of cognitive semantics have become more and more
interested in studying other modalities in addition to prevalent linguistic
ones. Relevant studies analysing pictorial, gestural or musical metaphors have
emerged and gathered momentum, resulting in thought-provoking studies on
modalities for example in comics or advertisements. Here, the interplay
between image and text plays an important role as the source and the target
domains are addressed via both modalities while video clips provide a
combination of three channels. As it stands, interest in analysing multimodal
metaphors is still growing and in need of further theoretical, methodological
and empirical development.

Against this backdrop, the present call for papers for a special issue of our
journal invites abstracts addressing the following aspects of multimodal
metaphors:
- different types of multimodal metaphors and the interaction of perception
channels in multimodal metaphors (e.g. complementary, contradictory,
redundant)
- different functions of multimodal metaphors (e.g. illustrative, heuristic,
persuasive)
- interplay of metaphors in multimodal types of text and forms of
communication (e.g. comics, advertisement, music clips)
- relevance of different varieties and communicative situations (e.g.
face-to-face, quasi-synchronous, asynchronous) in the interaction of
multimodal metaphors
- degrees of conventionality or creativity of multimodal metaphors
- importance of the context for the interpretation of multimodal metaphors
(e.g. current contextual knowledge for decoding political cartoons)
- cultural-specific characteristics of multimodal metaphors
- theoretical and methodological developments important for improving current
research on multimodal metaphors
