Imagery in Philological Text: A Monograph by Irina Kulikova & Diana Salmina
This academic work offers a rigorous exploration of imagery within scientific and philological discourse. The authors introduce the concept of the "figurative layer of the text," analyzing fragments from twenty linguists and philologists where metaphor, simile, analogy, and phraseology serve as organizing components. The monograph examines how cognitive images fulfill interpreting, predicative, terminological, and emotionally evaluative functions in scholarly prose. Special attention is paid to intra-linguistic and inter-linguistic echoes, demonstrating how imagery bridges conceptual gaps across languages and disciplines.
Designed for terminologists, lexicologists, lexicographers, and stylistics specialists, the book also supports postgraduate and master’s students enrolled in "Problems of Terminology in the Professional Sphere." It aims to cultivate metaphorical competence in modern professionals, equipping them to recognize and deploy figurative language as a precise analytical tool rather than mere ornamentation.
Price: 1155.00 RUR. A vital resource for anyone seeking to understand how living imagery shapes—and is shaped by—the formal structures of philological texts.
