Metaphor and Thought, Paperback / softback Book

Metaphor and Thought Paperback / softback

Edited by Andrew (Northwestern University, Illinois) Ortony

Paperback / softback

Description

Metaphor and Thought, first published in 1979, reflects the surge of interest in and research into the nature and function of metaphor in language and thought.

In this revised and expanded second edition, the editor has invited the contributors to update their original essays to reflect any changes in their thinking.

Reorganised to accommodate the shifts in central theoretical issues, the volume also includes six new chapters that present important and influential fresh ideas about metaphor that have appeared in such fields as the philosophy of language and the philosophy of science, linguistics, cognitive and clinical psychology, education and artificial intelligence.
