Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
The course will introduce students to the notions of conceptual metaphor and conceptual categories, their structure and role in understanding our everyday experience and the way metaphor is used as a persuasion or framing device in texts. A distinction will be made between conceptual and discourse metaphors. Conceptual metaphors are viewed as stable mental representations present in individual minds and are based on an individual organism's interaction with the environment, while discourse metaphors are created through social interaction and refer to culture and history of a given speech community. This is why methods of investigating them vary between psycholinguistic experiments and/or observations and discourse analysis. We will look into these two approaches in turn.
