Researching and Applying Metaphor in the Real World
Author: Graham Low
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing
ISBN: 9027287775
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 399
Book Description
It has become increasingly clear that metaphor needs to be explored in terms of the social and discourse context in which it is used, especially where the aim is to address real-world problems. The notion of 'real world' metaphor research has been developed to describe this important area of investigation. This book starts by describing the nature and scope of real world metaphor research and then illustrates, through 17 detailed, mainly empirically-based studies, the different areas it can apply to, and different methodologies that can be employed. Research problems are explored in areas such as artificial intelligence, language teaching and learning, reconciliation dialogue, university lecture discourse, poetry and wine description. Methods include corpus analysis, experimentation, discourse analysis, cross-cultural analysis and genre analysis. In each case the empirical studies refer back to Gibbs's opening overview of real-world research. The result is an invaluable and cross-referenced collection of papers addressing real-world problems.

The Man with the Lumpy Nose
Author: Lawrence Lariar
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 1504056442
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
As Word War II comes to a close, a Manhattan detective uncovers a link between a series of brutal murders and a Nazi propogandist. Lawrence Lariar was one the most popular cartoonists of the twentieth century. But from the 1940s through the 1960s, he also crafted a line of lean and mean detective and mystery novels under his own name as well as the pseudonyms Michael Stark, Adam Knight, Michael Lawrence, and Marston La France. Lariar now gets his due as a leading artist in hardboiled crime fiction. To cartoonist and sleuth Homer Bull it looks like random murders: one man stabbed near an isolated lake in Red Hook, another taken out on a city street, and a woman slashed to death in her Queens apartment. There’s only one common thread: a bizarre hulk with a schnoz like a gnarled fist seen nosing around the crime scenes. The next time Homer and his fellow artists of the Comic Arts Club converge it’s to discuss the fiend’s latest victim: their much-hated newspaper editor, Earl Chance, knifed like the others. But Homer smells something fishy: Chance’s past. It not only reeks, it’s connecting the victims, that hovering proboscis, and most alarmingly, the members of Homer’s club. And it’s drawing the lot of them into nothing as common as spree killings. It’s more like an insidious conspiracy to corrupt the entire nation. The Man with the Lumpy Nose is the 3rd book in the Homer Bull & Hank MacAndrews Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
