This book offers a cognitive-semiotic approach to metaphoricity of
visual representations in static visual narratives referred to as
comics. It implements this approach in an exploration of
conventionalized visual signs depicting diegetic situations, motion
events, sound events, and diverse psychological experiences in such
narratives. With his focus on the intersection of comics studies,
conceptual metaphor theory, and Charles Sanders Peirce's theory of
signs, the author analyzes a broad array of attested data retrieved
from comics exemplifying various publication formats, generic
conventions, and cultural traditions. His exploration situates the
metaphoricity of the analyzed visual signs against the backdrop of
their overall semiotic makeup and in relation to the metaphoricity
of their linguistic counterparts.
