Abstract

This paper attempts to analyze the semantic spatialization of some abstract concepts in the LANGUAGE of QURAN. It has been carried out based on Lakoff-Johnson's 1980 theory of cognitive metaphors-orientation metaphors. The main research question is whether concrete space concepts influence the transition of abstract concepts or those not related to place or space, and whether the mapping of these two concepts can be dealt with through cognitive theory of metaphor. For this reason, words, expressions, and metaphorical focuses denoting the spatial concepts of "front, back, near and far" were extracted from the Holy QURAN. The findings show that the abstract concepts of "importance, attention and failure" are spatialized through FRONT/BACK concepts. Moreover, "greatness, enmity, and doing affairs" are the non-spatial ideas, conceptualized by "FAR/ NEAR" concepts.
