【书名】：How Metaphors Guide, Teach and Popularize Science

【作者】：Anke Beger, Thomas H. Smith (eds.)

【年份】：2020年

【出版社】：John Benjamins出版社

【简介】：隐喻和科普之间关系的讨论文集。

Metaphors are essential to scientists themselves and strongly influence science communication. Through careful analyses of metaphors actually used in science texts, recordings, and videos, this book explores the essential functions of conceptual metaphor in the conduct of science, teaching of science, and how scientific ideas are promoted and popularized. With an accessible introduction to theory and method this book prepares scientists, science teachers, and science writers to take advantage of recent shifts in metaphor theories and methods. Metaphor specialists will find theoretical issues explored in studies of bacteriology, cell reproduction, marine biology, physics, brain function and social psychology. We see the degree of conscious or intentional use of metaphor in shaping our conceptual systems and constraining inferences. Metaphor sources include social structure, embodied experience, abstract or mathematical formulations. The results are sometimes innovative hypotheses and robust conclusions; other times pedagogically useful, if inaccurate, stepping stones or, at worst, misleading fictions.

【书名】：Ecolinguistics: Language, Ecology and the Stories We Live By

【作者】：Arran Stibbe

【年份】：2015年

【出版社】：Routledge出版社

【简介】：The increasingly rapid destruction of the ecological systems that support life is calling into question some of the fundamental stories that we live by: stories of unlimited economic growth, of consumerism, progress, individualism, success, and the human domination of nature.

Ecolinguistics shows how linguistic analysis can help reveal the stories we live by, open them up to question, and contribute to the search for new stories. Bringing together the latest ecolinguistic studies with new theoretical insights and practical analyses, this book charts a new course for ecolinguistics as an engaged form of critical enquiry. Featuring:

A framework for understanding the theory of ecolinguistics and applying it practically in real life;

Exploration of diverse topics from consumerism in lifestyle magazines to Japanese nature haiku;

A comprehensive glossary giving concise descriptions of the linguistic terms used in the book;

Discourse analysis of a wide range of texts including newspapers, magazines, advertisements, films, nonfiction books, and visual images.

This is essential reading for undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers working in the areas of Discourse Analysis and Language and Ecology.
