Review
“This book breaks new ground in the cognitive linguistic study of metaphor, simile and metonymy. A must read for anyone interested in figurative language, cognition and discourse.”
Elena Semino, Lancaster University
“Figurative Language is a marvelous book that will serve as both a very readable textbook for students and a source of research ideas for even expert figurative language scholars. The presentation of the complex cognitive linguistic literature on this topic is complete, well-organized, and illustrated with wonderful examples from literature, politics, science and religious discourse. I was most impressed by the way Dancygier and Sweetser blend together the diverse aspects of figuration into a more general framework that reveals deeper insights into the relations between language, thought, and culture.”
Raymond W. Gibbs, Jr, University of California, Santa Cruz
“… clearly has educational value for students, but the book’s powerful explanatory framework also will be of interest to scholars in linguistics, cognition, and literature … thought provoking and insightful.”
