Timelines: Conceptual Integration, Emotion, and Poetic Effects
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstr act. One of the most broadly investigated topics in the literature on conceptual mappings is the importance of spatial construals for thinking and talking about time. In two forthcoming articles [1] [7] we explore how people understand timelines – both as graphical objects, in discourse about timelines taken from newspapers and the web, and in poetic examples. A comparison with metaphors incorporating circular patterns shows that temporal and affective meanings can change dramatically when they arise from different spatial structures.
