A Psychohistory of Metaphors: Envisioning Time, Space, and Self through the Centuries - Paperback

by Brian J. McVeigh (Author)

A Psychohistory of Metaphors traces how, in response to historical change, metaphors have expanded our introspective capabilities. By illuminating how new experiences borrowed from visual and spatial perceptions have transformed cognition itself, unexpected linkages among notions of time, geography, and psyche are revealed.
