Книга Objects of Metaphor Objects of Metaphor Книги Психология, философия Автор: Samuel Guttenplan Год издания: 2005 Формат: pdf Издат.:Oxford University Press, USA Страниц: 306 Размер: 1,7 Mb ISBN: 0199280894 Язык: Английский0 (голосов: 0) Оценка:Objects of Metaphor puts forward a philosophical account of metaphor radically different from those currently on offer. Powerful and flexible enough to cope with the syntactic complexity typical of genuine metaphor, it offers novel conceptions of the relationship between simile and metaphor,the notion of dead metaphor, and the idea of metaphor as a robust theoretic kind. Without denying that metaphor can sometimes be merely ornamental, Guttenplan justifies the view of metaphor as fundamental to language and the study of language. His book will be of great interest not only tophilosophers in this field, but also to those working across psychology and linguistics.
