Описание: Language in Use: Metaphors in Non-Literary Contexts is a kaleidoscope of studies born from the belief that there is always something more to say about metaphor. What unites the pieces of this kaleidoscope is that all chapters rely on conceptual metaphor theory. As such, they bring together applications of this theory (and some of its further developments) in a variety of contexts and types of discourse, against a multitude of cultural backgrounds.The book is structured into two sections. The first, Metaphors at play and work, is dedicated to the use of metaphors in everyday language. Particular attention is paid to metaphors of, and in, translation and specialised jargons, and color terms-driven metaphors. The second, Living with metaphors, builds on metaphors in private discourses, including diaries and life stories, and in public ones, pertaining to the political arena, advertising, media campaigns, the foreign language teaching environment, and the film industry.

Описание:

Metaphor, as an act of human fancy, combines ideas in improbable ways to sharpen meanings of life and experience. Theoretically, this arises from an association between a sign—for example, a cattle car—and its referent, the Holocaust. These “sign-vehicles” serve as modes of semiotic transportation through conceptual space. Likewise, on-the-ground vehicles can be rich metaphors for the moral imagination. Following on this insight, Vehicles presents a collection of ethnographic essays on the metaphoric significance of vehicles in different cultures. Analyses include canoes in Papua New Guinea, pedestrians and airplanes in North America, lowriders among Mexican-Americans, and cars in contemporary China, Japan, and Eastern Europe, as well as among African-Americans in the South. Vehicles not only “carry people around,” but also “carry” how they are understood in relation to the dynamics of culture, politics and history.

Описание: "Stories I Tell My Patients" by Arnold Andersen, M.D., has been an intermittent feature in "Eating Disorders: The Journal of Treatment and Prevention" from 1993 to 2015. The complete set of 101 stories is collected here for the first time. Combining myth, metaphor, fable, tall tale, and inventive fantasy, they help professionals and patients alike overcome eating disorders.
An eclectic mix, Arnold s stories are both entertaining and insightful. Some are vaguely familiar, such as the retelling of The Emperor Has No Clothes or Faustian deals with the devil. There are knights in shining armor, time machines, intergalactic travelers, stories derived from Greek mythology, anorexic saints of the 16th century, and current events. Most of the stories sprang from Arnold s imagination, and many were inspired by his direct interactions with patients. Inanimate objects such as buoys and thermometers carry on conversations, and descriptions of Paris reflect the author s love of that beautiful city.
The stories are not meant ultimately to cure eating disorders but rather to get attention and convey an idea. No matter how old we get, we can relate to roses and bike trips, shadows and catsup.

Описание: From the author of Mindfulness A to Z!

This engaging and accessible little book is filled with both humor and profound teaching. It presents 108 metaphors for mindfulness, meditation practice, the nature of the self, change, deep acceptance, and other related concepts that Dr. Kozak has cultivated over twenty-five years of meditating, practicing yoga, and working as a clinical psychologist.

Metaphors are indispensable to understanding mindfulness, and to help deeply internalize it and make it a part of everyday life. These mentally catchy images can motivate us to practice, show us how and where to bring mindfulness to life in our personal experience, and help us employ powerful methods for transformation.

This book was previously published under the title Wild Chicken and Petty Tyrants.
