Print Travels explores how metaphorical and actual descriptions of travel depict and shape early modern thinking and writing about movement. Changes in navigational methods, increases in circulation of travel literature, and advances in means of travel alter how early modern writers present movement. By integrating theories of metaphor with critical approaches to early modern literature, I argue that early modern systems of describing motion change the role of metaphor in the period. The first two chapters examine depictions of actual travel and changes in measurement associated with travel. Chapter one reads practical manuals of navigation and instructions for travelers and argues that the material descriptions of movement found in these texts have a decisive impact on the ways available to describe movement. Chapter two approaches Hakluyt's Principall Navigations as a singular but multi-voiced text. This chapter shows how disparities between the individual's perceptions of movement and larger-scale concerns of travel over greater distances opens the space for metaphoric descriptions to exist and change. The next three chapters examine metaphors and depictions of travel in more canonical texts. Chapter three reads the allegorical travel of Spenser's The Faerie Queene to examine how the characters describe their own movements and to explore the difficulties of translating navigational and mapping methods to a fictional world. Chapter four uses Ralegh's Discoverie of Guiana and Donne's Azores poems to examine how these forms overlay meaning and movement on one another. This comparison allows an exploration of representation of movement and stasis. The final chapter explores questions of movement and stasis in staged depictions of travel in Thomas Heywood's plays. By examining Heywood's plays across the era, I argue that we can map changes in the ways that travel is represented on the stage. I argue that later Heywood plays report travel rather than represent travel on the stage, showing a change in the way that travel can function metaphorically. Print Travels traces changes in the metaphoric descriptions of travel and provides a new way of reading travel metaphors in early modern texts.

Body Memory, Metaphor and Movement is an interdisciplinary volume with contributions from philosophers, cognitive scientists, and movement therapists. Part one provides the phenomenologically grounded definition of body memory with its different typologies. Part two follows the aim to integrate phenomenology, conceptual metaphor theory, and embodiment approaches from the cognitive sciences for the development of appropriate empirical methods to address body memory. Part three inquires into the forms and effects of therapeutic work with body memory, based on the integration of theory, empirical findings, and clinical applications. It focuses on trauma treatment and the healing power of movement. The book also contributes to metaphor theory, application and research, and therefore addresses metaphor researchers and linguists interested in the embodied grounds of metaphor. Thus, it is of particular interest for researchers from the cognitive sciences, social sciences, and humanities as well as clinical practitioners.

Drawing on her extensive experience in expressive arts therapy, Daria Halprin presents a unique approach to healing through movement and art. She describes the body as the container of one's entire life experience and movement as a language that expresses and reveals our deepest struggles and creative potentials. Interweaving artistic and psychological processes, she offers a philosophy and methodology that invites the reader to consider the transformational capacity of the arts. In this essential resource for anyone interested in the integration of psychotherapy and the arts, Halprin also presents case studies and a selection of exercises that she has evolved over her career and practised at the Tamalpa Institute for over twenty-five years.

This volume is the first to offer an overview on metaphor and gesture a new multi-disciplinary area of research. Scholars of metaphor have been paying increasing attention to spontaneous gestures with speech; meanwhile, researchers in gesture studies have been focussing on the abstract ideas which receive physical representation through metaphors when speakers gesture. This book presents a snapshot of the state of the art in these converging fields, offering research papers as well as commentaries from multiple perspectives. In addition to conceptual metaphor theory it includes different theoretical approaches to semiotics, and the methods used range from controlled experimentation, to cognitive ethnography, to lexical semantic analysis. The use of metaphor in gesture is shown to reflect idiosyncracies of thought in the moment of speaking as well as structural, cultural, and interactional patterns. The series of commentaries discusses the potential importance of studying metaphor and gesture from the perspectives of such fields as anthropology, cognitive linguistics, conversation analysis, psychology, and semiotics.

Metaphors in audiovisual media receive increasing attention from film and communication studies as well as from linguistics and multimodal metaphor research. The specific media character of film, and thus of cinematic metaphor, remains, however, largely ignored. Audiovisual images are all too frequently understood as iconic representations and material carriers of information. Cinematic Metaphor proposes an alternative: starting from film images as affective experience of movement-images, it replaces the cognitive idea of viewers as information-processing machines, and heals the break with rhetoric established by conceptual metaphor theory. Subscribing to a phenomenological concept of embodiment, a shared vantage point for metaphorical meaning-making in film-viewing and face-to-face interaction is developed. The book offers a critique of cognitive film and metaphor theories and a theory of cinematic metaphor as performative action of meaning-making, grounded in the dynamics of viewers' embodied experiences with a film. Fine-grained case studies ranging from Hollywood to German feature film and TV news, from tango lesson to electoral campaign commercial, illustrate the framework’s application to media and multimodality analysis.
