Metaphor pervades discourse and may govern how we think and act. But most studies only discuss its verbal varieties. This book examines metaphors drawing on combinations of visuals, language, gestures, sound and music. It investigates texts including advertising, political cartoons, comics, film, songs and oral communication.
