A Theory of Metaphor. Truth, Falsity, and the Uncanny, Paperback/Fredric V. Bogel

A Theory of Metaphor : Truth, Falsity, and the Uncanny is a strikingly original analysis of metaphor. Scholarly and imaginative, this sophisticated theory builds on a simple definition: metaphors are not comparisons but statements of identity (A is B), statements simultaneously true and false.
