Beschreibung

A Theory of Metaphor: Truth, Falsity, and the Uncanny is a strikingly original analysis of metaphor. Scholarly and imaginative, this sophisticated theory builds on a simple definition: metaphors are not comparisons but statements of identity (A is B), statements simultaneously true and false.

Über den Autor

Fredric V. Bogel is Professor of English, emeritus, at Cornell University, USA. He is the author of New Formalist Criticism: Theory and Practice (2013).
