What is it about?
The book presents three necessary and complementary perspectives on the analysis of metaphor in Discourse, The first one presents new approaches to conceptual metaphor analysis within cognitive linguistics as a systematic mechanism for knowledge configuration; the second one shows relevant work on current approaches to procedures of metaphor identification and scrutiny about awareness in metaphor usage; the third approach tackles the multimodal nature of metaphorical mappings.
