Metaphor is the problem I have been thinking about recently.
Cognitive linguistics study metaphor to understand how people use metaphor to
construct meaning.
Anthropology study metaphor to do cross-cultural comparison of cultural
pattern.
The largely agreed-upon assumption is that the underlying mechanism of
metaphor is association: mapping from one domain to another.
Whenever I read a poem I always keep an eye on the metaphor a poet use, and

priates,vampire, aliens,dark lord, Frankstein, Batman or Superman
These are the frequent subjects of today's American novels and Hollywood

overall American view of life is quite pessimistic.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The privation of good (Latin: privatio boni) is a theological doctrine that

misleading. Instead, evil is rather the absence or lack ("privation") of
good.[1][2][3] It is typically attributed to St. Augustine of Hippo, who

圣经中的修辞手法
——摘自《基础解经法》苏克博士著
一九三七年，一位格拉斯哥大学的英国文学教授麦克尼尔狄克逊（W. MacNeile Dixon）
说：
若有人问我造成人类历史最大的力量为何……我会回答……修辞表达。人类是靠想像力
生存的；想像支配了我们一切的生活。人类的脑袋，并非如哲学家所表现的，像一个辩
论厅；而是像一个画廊……若将比喻（修辞表达的一种）自圣经中除去，圣经的活力则
随之消失……先知、诗人、领袖，都是运用比喻的高手，他们藉著形象化的描写掠夺人
类的心灵。圣经包括了数以百计的修辞手法，布林格（E。w。 Bullin。ger）将圣经中
的修辞归纳出二百多种，举了八千多个例子，二百多种修辞的目录长达二十八页！
一、什么是修辞手法？
文法指出字的一般功用；然而，有时讲者或作者故意违反这些文法，用新的形式来表达
，此为修辞手法。布林格写道：「修辞手法是以特别的方式运用字句，与原来简单的意
思及用法有所不同。」我们若说：「雨下得很大」，这说法既平淡又普通。但若说：「

Nietzsche's "Three Metamorphoses"
by Jason Francois
In the section of Thus Spoke Zarathustra entitled, "Of the Three
Metamorphoses,” Zarathustra describes a process of human transformation.
This transformation will become Zarathustra's answer to the fears and
anxieties created by the "death of God".
Nietzsche begins: "I name you three metamorphoses of the spirit: how the
spirit shall become a camel, and the camel a lion, and the lion at last a
child".
These metaphors... 阅读全帖 |

比如我就是ham，哈明顿，火腿，算子。
今天lanren 说了个dadi，我开始晕了。
首先我看到preset，绰号待定，
我就想，是不是lanren也是在metaphor呢？dadi扩散一下，为 daiding
daiding，待定。
于是在我心里，preset就是dadi了
后来大家又把dadi和松鼠扯在一起，我就想，原来preset和松鼠是有联系的呀。
我这要出去说：preset和松鼠有关系。。
那这几位 -- preset, 松鼠，真dadi -- 那还不把我给抽S了?
我是被带坏了。 |

BODY AND SOUL:
CALVINISM, DISCIPLINE AND STATE POWER IN EARLY MODERN EUROPE
AMan is not fitted for society by nature, but by discipline.@
Hobbes, De Cive
The differences between the theoretical perspective advanced here and the one
adopted in most work on state formation can be easily grasped in terms of a
common metaphor, the metaphor of the Abody politic@ and, more specifically, by
means of one of its better-known representations, the frontispiece to the
first edition of Hobbes=s Le |

Our 25 Best Movies of 2010 range from a Facebook biopic to a Western remake,
from an animated story about toys to a war movie that hardly ever leaves
the interior of a tank. There’s a Venezuelan story filmed in Austria, an
Israeli film called Lebanon, an American remake of a Swedish movie, and
films from Belgium, Australia, Argentina, Great Britain and Italy. Some are
popcorn flicks, and others will change the way you thin... 阅读全帖 |

原文：The Spirit of May 35th （载《纽约时报》—中国来信， 2011年6月23日）
译者：爻义
你可能认为5月35日是个虚拟的日子，但在中国，它是真实存在的。它指的实际上是6月
4日，1989年发生“天安门事件“的日子，这个词在互联网上被禁掉了，人们于是使用
“5月35日”来逃避审查和纪念那天发生的事。
今年早些时候我访问台湾的时候，我的书《十个词汇里的中国》在那儿刚刚出版。我被
问到，“为什么这本书不能在大陆出版，而你的小说《兄弟》却可以？”
这就是虚构与非虚构的差别：尽管两本书都是关于当代中国的，《兄弟》触及的是隐晦
的事因而可以成为漏网之鱼，而《十个词汇里的中国》过于直白，逃不过审查。
“《兄弟》是5月35日”，我解释道，“而《十个词汇里的中国》更像6月4日。”
想要表达观点的话，5月35日式的词汇成了今天的例行规则。根据最新的数字，中国有
四亿五千七百万网民，三亿三百万中国人可以用手机上网。在网上控制这些用户不越距
是巨大的工作，政府最有效的控制机制是把某些词汇设定为不可接受，直接禁止它们在
网上使用。
于是那些热衷于表达他们自己观点的人发现他们... 阅读全帖 |
