Objects of Metaphor puts forward a philosophical account of
metaphor radically different from those currently on offer.
Powerful and flexible enough to cope with the syntactic complexity
typical of genuine metaphor, it offers novel conceptions of the
relationship between simile and metaphor, the notion of dead
metaphor, and the idea of metaphor as a robust theoretic kind.
Without denying that metaphor can sometimes be merely ornamental,
Guttenplan justifies the view of metaphor as fundamental to
language and the study of language. His book will be of great
interest not only to philosophers in this field, but also to those
working across psychology and linguistics.
