MonographDOI
A method for linguistic metaphor identification : from MIP to MIPVU
Gerard J. Steen,Aletta G. Dorst,J. Berenike Herrmann,Anna Kaal,Tina Krennmayr,Trijntje Pasma +5 more
TL;DR: This book presents a complete method for the identification of metaphor in language at the level of word use based on extensive methodological and empirical corpus-linguistic research in two languages, English and Dutch.
Journal ArticleDOI
The paradox of metaphor: Why we need a three-dimensional model for metaphor.
TL;DR: The authors showed that most deliberate metaphor is processed metaphorically (by comparison), as opposed to most non-deliberate metaphor, which may be assumed to be typically not processed metaphorally (that is, by categorization).
Blending and Metaphor
TL;DR: This paper explored the relationship between blending theory and conceptual metaphor theory and argued that the two approaches are complementary, and that the cross-domain relationships which have been identified by CMT researchers shape and constrain the more complex process of conceptual blending.
Book
