Knowles Murray, Moon Rosamund. Introducing Metaphor

London, New York: Routledge, 2005. — 149 p.
Introducing Metaphor is an accessible introduction to the different ways in which
metaphor permeates all areas of language, and other methods of communication,
covering both theoretical and practical approaches to the analysis of texts.
Combining a variety of approaches to this widely studied subject, the book provides a
thorough grounding in metaphor and word meaning, theories on the processing and
understanding of metaphorical language, and metaphor in other languages and
translation.
