Binding function of metaphor
Abstract
This paper focuses on the analysis of the theories of metaphor developed in American cognitive linguistics. The idea of metaphor as the basis for emergent structures is opposed by the view according to which metaphor, as well as other processes of semantic derivation and word formation, is preconditioned by the previously established links between objects, their properties and relations that exist in the experienced world.
