Abstract
This chapter contains sections titled: Introduction The Logic of Freedom The Logic of Denial Conclusion.
at play in the fields of metaphor metaphor, an irregular use of language metaphors, similes, and “other” logic of denial ‐ something powerful and penetrating about some metaphors, even insinuating metaphor‐maker ‐ exploiting freedom, venturing beyond standard rules of language literal uses of language ‐ guided by rules Shakespeare's “Macbeth doth murder sleep” literal sense of a sentence ‐ somehow generated by and grasped in terms of R, language's rules
