The Power of Metaphor : Examining Its Influence on Social Life (9781433815799)



This book explores the possibility that people understand abstract social concepts using metaphor, which from this perspective is not simply a matter of words. Rather, it is a cognitive tool that people routinely use to understand abstract concepts (such as morality) in terms of superficially dissimilar concepts that are relatively easier to comprehend (such as cleanliness).

Although observations on metaphor's cognitive significance date back to Aristotle, the development of a formal theoretical framework, labelled conceptual metaphor theory, has stimulated systematic empirical study on metaphor's role in social psychological phenomena primarily over the past decade.

This book summarises current knowledge and integrates recent developments for readers interested in the topic of metaphor and, more broadly, in the cognitive underpinnings of social life.

Some topics covered include

overcoming many of the empirical limitations confronting linguistic analyses of conceptual metaphor
how metaphoric influences guide perceptions of other people and the self and judgments of right and wrong
relying on metaphor when constructing memories of social stimuli
the role of metaphor in judgment and decision making
how exposure to metaphor in mass political communication influences observers' attitudes toward social and political issues

The Social Contract (9780140442014)

Man was born free, and he is everywhere in chains These are the famous opening words of a treatise that has not ceased to stir vigorous debate since its first publication in 1762. Rejecting the view that anyone has a natural right to wield authority over others, Rousseau argues instead for a pact, or 'social contract', that should exist between all the citizens of a state and that should be the source of sovereign power. From this fundamental premise, he goes on to consider issues of liberty and law, freedom and justice, arriving at a view of society that has seemed to some a blueprint for totalitarianism, to others a declaration of democratic principles.
