It is intended for discussion of research on metaphor, metonymy, and other aspects of figurative thought and expression, particularly as applied to ‘real world’ issues across different fields. The list is open in terms of: - theoretical approach in research, - means of expression of metaphor/metonymy being studied (language as written, spoken, or signed, but also other forms of representation in sound and/or image, such as pictures, film, dance, music, or designed artefacts), and - domain of application (e.g., artistic, commercial, humanities, medical, legal, literary, organizational, pedagogic, or political domains, or related to the social, natural, or physical sciences).
