    Författare :Rebecca Sonesson; [2023-07-07]
    Nyckelord :Horror; Clive Barker; gothic literature; The Hellbound Heart; literary studies; body horror; new materialism; splatterpunk; the weird;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis explores how corporeality is represented within horror literature, and if the depicted corporeality can be read in a more material way rather than in a metaphorical way. By using the character of Frank from Clive Barker’s novel The Hellbound Heart, the relation between representations of corporeality and physical materiality is examined. LÄS MER

  2. 2. The Voice of Nature : Ecological Personification in Abulhawa’s Mornings in Jenin and Abdel-Fattah’s Where the Streets Had a Name: An Ecolinguistic Analysis

    Master-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för språk (SPR)

    Författare :Zayna Halis; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Conceptual Metaphor Theory; ecolinguistics; ecological personification; ecosophy; ecological identities; eco-resistance; embodied metaphors;

    Sammanfattning : This study delves into the ways in which the displaced Palestinian characters in Susan Abulhawa’s Mornings in Jenin (2010) and Randa Abdel-Fattah’s Where the Streets Had a Name (2008) connect to their homeland through embodied metaphors, particularly through the personification of their native lands, which will be read with recourse to Conceptual Metaphor Theory (CMT). By utilizing ecolinguistics as an analytical lens and applying CMT, this study illuminates how both literary works significantly underscore the urgency and cruciality of the human-nature interconnection and interdependence amid tragedy and dispossession.

  3. 3. Mose Ting

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Centrum för teologi och religionsvetenskap

    Författare :Alfred Ingmår; [2023]
    Nyckelord :symbol; allegory; Conceptual Metaphor Theory; Gregory of Nyssa; The Life of Moses; religious language; sacramentality; Philosophy and Religion;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this essay is to apply the theories of metaphor from Conceptual Metaphor Theory on a work of allegorical interpretation of the Bible – more specifically, Gregory of Nyssa’s The Life of Moses – and discuss what theological questions and perspectives arises from that. My primary question is thus: how can Gregory of Nyssa’s way of interpreting, and giving meaning to, objects in The Life of Moses be understood through Conceptual Metaphor Theory? By analyzing nine physical objects, I show that Gregory throughout the work highlights aspects of sensory impressions, basic knowledge, and orientational factors, which governs how he accredits an object meaning symbolically.

  5. 5. Organisationsmetaforer och organisatoriskt kunskapsarbete

    Magister-uppsats, Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för bibliotek, information, pedagogik och IT

    Författare :Hanna Thelin; [2022]
    Nyckelord :metafor; organisation; kunskapsarbete; kunskapsdelning; conceptual metaphor theory;

    Sammanfattning : The age old question of whether language constructs reality or merely describes it has long been the source of scientific controversy. The study of metaphor finds itself in the middle of this discussion since metaphor can be argued to illustrate the very core of the matter with its attempt to explain reality in terms of what it is not.
