Metaphor revisited,
By Cassandra Armstrong (Pittsburgh, PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Metaphor and Thought (Hardcover)
Ortony's 2nd edition of Metaphor and Thought incorporates research done since the publication of his first edition. Authors added include George Lakoff, Ray Gibbs and other leading researchers in this heavily explored area. This volume partially duplicates the first edition while providing the reader with additional insights from cognitive psychology, linguistics and philosophy of language. Owners of the first edition will want to augment it with this volume. The original group was impressive : Max Black, Ortony, Schank, Reddy, et al. Their ranks have been swollen with apt companions to produce this well organized discussion of the many ways metaphor influences the lives and cultures of the people using it to express ideas.
