Description

Explore the complex nature of metaphor in this scholarly volume from the Synthese Library. Metaphor remains one of the most frequently mentioned yet misunderstood concepts within philosophy and literary theory. This collection addresses these gaps by presenting several modern approaches to the subject. This book provides a survey of prominent developments in the field. Rather than just theoretical outlines, the authors re-present their views and use specific applications to illustrate their reasoning. This makes the text a valuable resource for those looking to understand how metaphor functions in contemporary thought. The volume features contributions from recognized scholars including Robert Fogelin, Susan Haack, Jaakko Hintikka (with Gabriel Sandu), Bipin Indurkhya, and Eva Kittay. It serves as a comprehensive guide for students and professionals studying the evolution of linguistic and philosophical theories regarding metaphoric language.
