Description

With contributions from Aristotle to Lakoff and Johnson, and incorporating the work of philosophers, linguists, literary theorists, and cognitive psychologists, this wide-ranging and multidisciplinary six-volume collection on metaphor and figurative language is a new title from Routledge’s Critical Concepts in Linguistics series. Metaphor and Figurative Language is fully indexed and has a comprehensive introduction, newly written by the editors, which places the collected material in its historical and intellectual context. It is an essential library purchase and is destined to be valued by scholars and students as a vital reference work and research tool. About the Author Patrick Hanks is one of Britain’s leading lexicographers.  He was responsible for the first editions of Collins English Dictionary, Cobuild, and The New Oxford Dictionary of English.   He is affiliated to the Computer Studies dept. at Brandeis University, focussing on corpus linguistics.
