About the book
"Re-Viewing Space. Figurative Language in Architects' Assessment of Built Space draws attention to the structure of mind as shown by the pervasiveness of figurative language in all kinds of discourse. It integrates insights from cognitive theory with discourse analytic procedures in order to explore the role of metaphor in real communication. Bearing in mind that an understanding of the relationship between conceptual schemas and linguistic expressions cannot be effected without considering the cultural contexts in which metaphors occur, this book is concerned with exploring the kind of metaphors used by architects for assessing design solutions in building reviews."--Jacket.
