Guest lecture / Talk

Anger Metaphors in American English

Prof. em. Zoltán Kövecses (Eötvös Loránd Tudományegyetem)

In the talk, Zoltán Kövecses revisits a paper on the conceptualization of anger in English written byLakoff and Kövecses 40 years ago. The paper became well-known in cognitive linguistic circles and beyond, but at the same time it was criticized for its "intuitive" methodology. As part of a larger project, Sullivan and Kövecses have recently reanalyzed the concept by means of two methods: the lexical and corpus-based ones. Zoltán Kövecses discusses the results in my presentation.
