Summary: "The Metaphor Compass: Directions for Metaphor Research in Language, Cognition, Communication, and Creativity provides a roadmap to navigate the recent findings and the cutting-edge research conducted around the world on metaphor, focusing on the following four themes: Metaphor and Linguistic Diversity, Metaphor and Cognition, Metaphor and Communication, and Metaphor and Creativity. The research presented in this book employs a variety of empirical methods, ranging from neuroimaging to corpus analyses and from behavioural experimentation to computational modelling. Divided into four parts, it offers an array of pedagogical material and activities such as a list of activities at that the end of chapter to help the reader to consolidate the notions discussed in the chapter. This is a useful resource for students, researchers and scholars of linguistics, communication, anthropology, psychology, and cognitive science looking to learn about figurative language and creativity"-- Provided by publisher
