Metaphors of Anger, Pride, and Love
Author: Zoltán Kövecses
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing
ISBN: 9027225583
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
This study is an attempt to uncover the structure of three emotion concepts: anger, pride and love. The results indicate that the conceptual structure associated with these emotions consists of four parts: (1) a system of metaphors, (2) a system of metonymies, (3) a system of related concepts, and (4) a category of cognitive models, with a prototypical model in the center. This goes against an influential view of the structure of concepts in linguistics, psychology, anthropology, according to which the structure of a concept can be represented by a small number of sense components.
