REZUMAT: |
This book is a comparative study of economic metaphors in English
and Romanian. It provides an overview of metaphor research in the
field of economics, and it analyses the way in which the main
metaphors used to conceptualize economic phenomena are realized
lexically in the two languages. This cross-linguistic perspective is
intended to reveal both the common ground shared by English and
Romanian and the areas where they do not coincide in terms of the
metaphors that shape their economic discourse. |
