Abstract:

In addition to his capital contribution to science and philosophy, Galileo is also celebrated as a master of the Italian language. The first part of the book focuses on the explicit passages in which the scientist justifies the choice of language, on the few Latin letters of his and on the coexistence of Italian and Latin in the last work (Discourses and Mathematical Demonstrations Relating to Two New Sciences). Subject of the second part is the Latin translation of the Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems, which was published in 1635 by Matthias Bernegger. Particular attention is g

Abstract:

This chapter demonstrates the nuances of plant metaphors in wedding and love poetry. Plant metaphors in love poetry praise beautiful youths by equating them with flowers threatened by the passage of time. Such threats are meant to be warnings to recalcitrant lovers. In the wedding discourse, flowers risk being violently destroyed and symbolize peaceful independence for female speakers. While floral metaphors do not permit safe interaction beyond aesthetic appreciation, vine metaphors emphasize physical entanglement and fruitful productivity. Accounts of nuptial productivity use imagery and ter

Abstract:

The story of Earth’s biosphere is looked at in the round, with a view to understanding correctly terminology such as ‘survival of the fittest’, and getting sound metaphors to underpin our understanding of genetics and natural selection. There is no need to pick Machiavellian metaphors when other less loaded ones will do. The evolutionary process has proved to be creative; it involves a rather lovely use of humble materials to improvise new structures and thus gain access to deeper and richer forms of existence. It is an open-handed process; its random element is a positive promoter of its free

Abstract:

This chapter turns to the neglected author, Aretaios of Kappodokia, and his nosological writings. Aretaios develops an anatomically informed vision of pain perception which employs Aristotelian ideas about perception; he describes these symptoms in a manner which combines specific and formal medical terminology with more quotidian language and metaphors for various pain symptoms. This combination of linguistic registers helps provide a structure for the recognition and diagnosis of different symptoms and their conditions. Aretaios combines these two aspects of his nosology with a vision of the

Abstract:

The book shows how metaphors are closely connected to sonic experience and make sense within a larger historical context of technological developments and changing discourses of recorded sound. The book traces written discourses of recorded sound, discussing how everyday listeners and audio professionals describe their experiences of sound in recorded music. Building on cognitive sciences and ideas of embodied cognition, the book provides new theoretical and methodological approaches to sound perception and conceptualization with particular relevance to recorded music. It expands on existing h

Abstract:

To remedy a scholarly lacuna on the study of adoption in the Hebrew Bible, chapters in this volume examine this topic from a variety of perspectives, including trauma, transfers of children, motives for adoption, the performance of parenthood, and studies of metaphor and practice. Divided into three sections, part one highlights the absence of specific adoption terminology and demonstrates the need for deeper considerations of methodological approaches and the categories we—as modern readers—bring to the texts. Part two considers the practices and language that we do see around ancient adoptio

Abstract:

This chapter looks at the concept of freedom and its articulation in ancient Greek texts. It shows that in the Homeric period, the terminology of slavery and freedom was used only for personal status. In the centuries that followed, these terms were appropriated and applied metaphorically to a variety of asymmetrical power relationships. However, Greeks were able to maintain clear distinctions between slavery as a legal concept and slavery as a metaphor. The chapter concludes with critiques of the methods of M. I. Finley and R. Zelnick-Abramovitz, who do not make clear distinctions between law

With so many leadership and strategy books sending the same messages in the same ways, this fresh approach is truly groundbreaking, using a fam

Using a performance lens and a shift in terminology from the metaphor of the cultural meme to the framing that adaptation affords, Lyndsay Michalik Gratch considers online adaptations in terms of creative process and human agency, rather than merely as products. This book offers a glossary of strategies for online adaptation that is useful not only for scholars in performance studies, but also for scholars o

Abstract:

“The Difficult Birth of the Two Sex Model” discusses the discovery of sex in plants, through a combination observation and experiment, which was the crowning achievement of seventeenth-century botany. It occurred in stages, corresponding to the contributions of Marcello Malpighi in Italy, Nehemiah Grew in England and Rudolf Jacob Camerarius in Germany. Microscopists Grew and Malpighi advanced plant anatomy, but Malpighi embellished the plants-as-female model with clinical terminology, promoting it from metaphor to scientific hypothesis. (Compromising, Grew added a transsexual stamen to his las

Abstract:

This introductory chapter describes how, for roughly a year following the collapse of the old order in November 1989, various groups of actors competed and struggled vigorously to re-create order in a way most advantageous to themselves. The longer-term goal, of course, was to dominate that order in the post-Cold War world. Again and again, key actors in 1989–90 employed the terminology of architecture to describe what they wanted: to start building anew, to construct a European roof or a common European home, to create a new transatlantic architecture, and so on.
