The Myth of Metaphor is a book written by Colin Murray Turbayne that explores the concept of metaphor and its role in language and thought. The book discusses the traditional view of metaphor as a mere figure of speech, and argues that it is actually a fundamental aspect of human cognition and perception. Turbayne examines the ways in which metaphors shape our understanding of the world, and how they are used in various fields such as literature, philosophy, and science. The book also delves into the philosophical implications of metaphor, including its relationship to truth and reality. Overall, The Myth of Metaphor offers a thought-provoking analysis of the power and importance of metaphor in human communication and thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
