The Metaphor Compass: Directions for Metaphor Research in Language, Cognition, Communication, and Creativity
Autor Marianna Bolognesi, Ana Werkmann Horvaten Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 dec 2022
The research presented in this book employs a variety of empirical methods, ranging from neuroimaging to corpus analyses and from behavioral experimentation to computational modeling. Divided into four parts, it offers an array of pedagogical material including activities at the ends of the chapters to help the reader to consolidate the notions discussed in the chapter.
This is a useful resource for students, researchers, and scholars of linguistics, communication, anthropology, psychology, and cognitive science looking to learn about figurative language and creativity.

Recenzii
This book is a real tour de force. It provides an excellent, detailed and thought-provoking account of how and why metaphor use varies across different speakers and across languages. It provides interesting insights into the nature of creative metaphor and the relationship it has with creative thinking more generally. A must-read for metaphor researchers and students.
