Title

CONCEPTUAL METAPHORS IN PERSIAN: A COGNITIVE PERSPECTIVE AND A CORPUS DRIVEN ANALYSIS

Pages

  39-61

Abstract

 The present thesis studies CONCEPTUAL METAPHORs in a representative corpus of Persian texts. Exploiting the Persian Linguistic Database (PLDB), we sampled a corpus of contemporary written texts, based on their similarity to the colloquial language of the Persian speakers, and then tried to identify and extract the relevant CONCEPTUAL METAPHORs. The sample corpus contains of 10 texts of contemporary Iranian writers, naming Hedayat, Jamalzadeh, Daneshvar, Aale -Ahmad….et al. Analyzing the corpus, the writer managed to extract nearly 2000 CONCEPTUAL METAPHORs in the form of 600 name of the mappings. Then the CONCEPTUAL METAPHORs classified according to the Lakoff and Johnson classification (1980) as ontological, structural and orientational, and a class of CONCEPTUAL METAPHORs that Lakoff and turner (1989) presented as image metaphors.As the next step we tried to determine the proportion of these classes comparing with each other. We concluded that the Persian speakers make use of ontological metaphors in their daily language, more than the other classes.Then we tried to determine which conceptual mappings and source domains are the most common ones in each class.Due to the corpus driven approach in the analysis of metaphors, considerable results obtained. For example it was observed that the abstract concepts as life, emotions or time are understood via some concrete domains as, objects, containers and personification. In addition, ideas about adopting a corpus driven approach in analyzing the CONCEPTUAL METAPHORs, and extending the sampled corpus findings to large corpora were discussed.
