Metaphor by David Punter
Metaphor is a central concept in literary studies, but it is also prevalent in everyday language and speech. This volume establishes the classical background of the term from its philosophical roots to the religious and political tradition of metaphor in the East; and relates metaphor to the public realms of culture and politics.-
