Book Synopsis Towards a Better Understanding of Metonymy by : Wojciech Wachowski
Book excerpt: The general aim of this book is to contribute to a better understanding of metonymy, using the theoretical framework of cognitive linguistics. The book argues for a conceptual rather than purely linguistic basis for metonymy and explores distinctions between metonymy and other figurative language.
