Abstract

Conceptual metaphor is viewed as a very important part of contemporary metaphor study. It is based on everyday metaphors with generality, systematicity, and productivity as its main characteristics. Mapping is an ontological correspondence in conceptual metaphor. By the analysis of cognitive context, this paper expounds the importance of cognitive context in producing and understanding conceptual metaphor. (LLBA 2001, vol. 35, n. 5)
