Title: Cognitive Linguistics Croft


1
Cognitive Linguistics Croft Cruse 8 (8.3.5
through end)
  • Metaphor

2
8.4 Metaphor and simile
  • Basically, metaphor and simile are two names for
    what is conceptually one thing the author
    insists that they are actually distinct, but I
    think that most people are not in agreement with
    him

8.5 Metaphor and metonymy
  • The characterization of metonymy here is rather
    impenetrable. Perhaps we are better off with
    Geeraerts ppt, or with just the examples
    (part-whole, individual-class, etc.)
  • Metaphor and metonymy are part of a continuum
    according to Radden, but Cruse suggests that they
    are always distinct
  • MORE IS UP is an example of a metonymy that
    supports a metaphor
