Abstract:
Abstract The molecular structure of a complex metaphor comprises two or more atomic metaphorical parts, known as primary metaphors. In the same way, several molecular structures of metaphors may combine and form a mixture, known as mixed metaphors. In this study, different types of metaphoric integrations are reviewed and illustrated in figures to facilitate understanding the phenomena. Above all, we introduce double-ground metaphoric chain, a new form of metaphoric integration that has not been identified in the previous literature. Also, a distinction is made between single-ground and double

Abstract:
The present article is concerned with the analysis of so-called metaphoric resemblance operations. Our corpus of animal metaphors, as representative of resemblance metaphors, reveals that there are complex cognitive operations other than simple one-correspondence mappings that are necessary to understand the interpretation process of the selected expressions (which include metaphor and simile). We have identified a strong underlying situational component in many of the examples under scrutiny, which requires the metonymic expansion of the metaphoric source.

Abstract:
Abstract When people produce or understand verbal metaphors, and metaphoric gestures, do they do so automatically or with conscious deliberation? Metaphor scholars widely recognize that the answer to this question depends on several factors, including the specific kind of metaphor that was produced or understood. But many scholars assume that the automatic use of metaphor involves the simple retrieval of its figurative meaning, without having to draw any cross-domain mappings. We argue that automaticity in behavior, such as when using verbal metaphors, actually involves many complex embodied a

Abstract:
Abstract Metaphor-based accounts of expressions involving a set of metaphors do not indicate how complex meaning is generated. For instance, meaning of the expression ‘this surgeon is a butcher’ is taken to arise from one metaphor: a person who performs actions with certain characteristics is a member of a profession known for those characteristics (Lakoff, 2008). But this metaphor does not explain its negative meaning. Blending Theory, in contrast, offers a convincing solution to this issue. Notwithstanding, it regards the expression as nonmetaphorical.

Abstract:
Political metaphor is frequently used in present-day political discourse. Nowadays, political metaphor has become one of the most lapidary, active and effective ways to express political outlooks and political influence. Complex political concepts, which are difficult to understand by everybody in the twinkling of an eye, can be easily understood after a cognitive bridge of the metaphor investigation, which helps people to see the light and understand this or that nation, the cultural inheritance, the ideology and the mode of thinking being formed at a certain historical stage of the country.

Public discourse on highly charged, complex social and political issues is extensive, with millions of sentences available for analysis. It is also rife with metaphors that manifest vast numbers of novel metaphoric expressions.

However, statistically-based data processing alone cannot do all the work.

abstractWhat factors motivate our understanding of metaphoric statements about time? English exhibits two deictic space–time metaphors: the Moving Ego metaphor conceptualizes the ego as moving forward through time, while the Moving Time metaphor conceptualizes time as moving forward towards the ego (Clark, 1973). In addition to earlier research investigating spatial influences on temporal reasoning (e.g., Boroditsky & Ramscar, 2002), recent lines of research have provided evidence that a complex of factors, such as personality differences, event valence, lifestyle, and emotional experience

In addition to denotative terms, a vast network of conceptual metaphors operates in marketing language, helping to shape and understand its key concepts. The most numerous category of conceptua

What evidence can be utilized that will furnish relevant insights on the origin or language?

Abstract:
The article presents an analysis of the cognitive metaphor of the disease on the example of 2 metaphorical models. Cognitive metaphors reflect the ideas of dialect speakers about the disease as a frightening and dangerous creature for humans that combines anthropomorphic and zoomorphic features. The euphemistic function of the metaphor is demonstrated, associated with the fear of direct naming of the disease and an attempt to describe complex mental phenomena in more accessible and understandable ways.

Abstract:
This paper focuses on metaphors as a methodology to design and reflect on design-led initiatives in the public sector. We are drawing on the experience of a capacity-building program developed in 2020 by Enap (National School of Public Administration) in partnership with teams of the Brazilian federal government, in which we conducted four projects through the metaphor of a collective dive. When analyzing the effects of the projects through conversations with participants, we expanded the metaphor, understanding the reflections as breathing, the project conditions as bubbles and currents, and

Abstract:
The article reveals the most secure model of global governance, which is the basis of sustainable scenario of globalization, using the method of significant metaphors: “starship” (a civilization as evolution of cosmists’ idea); “dobrostroy model” and globalization, which is based on it as a version of “noospheric communism”. The pyramid of power is described as a hierarchy of conventions structured by goals and values. The structure can be formalized as a solution to a complex problem in multi-valued logic.

Abstract:
Change in higher education information systems, and other informing science curricula is inevitable. This paper offers a brief consideration of three different models that can be used to describe how this change occurs. Most curriculum texts give prime consideration to approaches to curriculum change based on research, development and diffusion models, and the paper outlines some objections to the application of models of this type to describing how university curriculum in the informing sciences is built and rebuilt. It offers instead three alternate models; one based on an ecological metapho
