A Detailed Revision And Refinement Of The 'Semantic Theory Of Metaphor,' This Book Provides A Comprehensive Philosophical Theory Explicating Metaphor'S Cognitive Contribution. According To The Author, Metaphor Effects A Transference Of Meaning, Not Between Two Terms, But Between Two Structured Domains Of Content, Or 'Semantic Fields.' Semantic Fields, Construed As Necessary To A Theory Of Wordmeaning, Provide The Contrastive And Affinitive Relations That Govern A Term'S Literal Use. In A Metaphoric Use, These Relations Are Projected Into A Second Domain Which Is Thereby Reordered With Significant Cognitive Effects. Amply Illustrated With Sensitive And Systematic Analyses Of Metaphors Found In Literature, Philosophy, Science, And Quotidian Language, This Book Forges A New Understanding Of The Relation Between Metaphoric And Literal Meaning.
