Metaphorical Life

About This Novel

"The Life of Metaphor" attempts to open up new perspectives, ideas and research fields for contemporary metaphor research. Firstly, this book provides as comprehensive a collection of representative Chinese and Western metaphor research materials as possible, and on this basis, it explores local traditional resources; secondly, this book defines the historical stages, fields and types of metaphor research; thirdly, this book takes the conflict and reconciliation of "beauty" and "truth" as its central axis, follows the law of simultaneous development of history and spirit, and integrates the research results of Chinese and Western metaphors. Starting from the four dimensions of rhetoric, poetics, philosophy of language, and epistemology-ontology philosophy, an interactive metaphor theoretical system is preliminarily established. Fourthly, a comprehensive examination of the transformative and generative properties of metaphor is conducted, thereby proving that metaphor is an organic existence that is constantly transformed and generated, and that human language, literature, cognition, and even life itself all have the transformative and generative nature of metaphor.
