Index 321
Figurative Language, Genre and Register brings together methods from
discourse analysis and corpus linguistics in a cutting-edge study of figurative
language ¡n spoken and written discourse. The authors combine their
extensive experience in figurative language research to explore metaphor
and metonymy within a variety of genres and registers, at both the discourse
and lexical level. They present a clear framework for analysis which allows
for an accurate and complete description of figurative language as it is used
by members of different discourse communities. This framework is applied
to new data as well as to the authors past research to show how its use can
achieve new insights.
Figurative language is shown to be pervasive and inescapable, but it is
also suggested that it varies significantly across genres. Hence, the use of
figurative language can both help and hinder communication, especially when
boundaries between genres and discourse communities are crossed.
•
Introduces a framework for accurately describing and analysing figurative
language which foregrounds the importance of genre and register
•
Examines variation in the forms, frequency and functions of figurative
language n use
•
Provides evidence for the importance of metaphor and metonymy for
discourse communities, and how this can exclude and confuse outsiders
•
Draws on written and spoken data from diverse contexts, such as popular
science writing, spoken academic discourse and football reporting
