The book elaborates one of the many brilliant ideas of Roman
Jakobson's, i.e. his insight that the two cognitive strategies of the
metaphoric and the metonymic are the end-points on a continuum of
conceptualization processes. This elaboration is achieved on the
background of Lakoff and Johnson's two-domain approach, i.e. the
mapping of a source onto a target domain of conceptualization. Further
approaches dwell on different stretches of this metaphor-metonymy
continuum. Still other papers probe into the specialized conceptual
division of labor associated with both modes of thought. Two new
breakthroughs in the cognitive linguistics approach to metaphor and
metonymy developed recently: one is the three-domain approach, which
concentrates on the new blends that be come possible after the
integration or the blending of source and target domain elements; the
other is the approach in terms of primary scenes and subscenes which
often determine the way source and target domains interact.
