Abstract:

Poetry pushes metaphor to the limit. Consider how many different, dynamic, and
interconnected dimensions (e.g., text, rhyme, rhythm, sound, and many more) a
poem has, and how they all play a role in the ways (metaphorical) meaning is
constructed. There is probably no other genre that relies so much on the
creator’s ability to get his or her message across while, at the same time,
leaving enough room for the interpreters to find out for themselves what a
poem means to them, what emotions and feelings it evokes, and which
experiences it conveys. This book uses interviews, questionnaires and
think-aloud protocols to investigate the meanings and functions of metaphors
from a poet’s perspective and to explore how readers interpret and engage with
this poetry. Besides the theoretical contribution to the field of metaphor
studies, this monograph presents numerous practical implications for a
systematic exploration of metaphors in contemporary poetry and beyond.
