Book excerpt: Excerpt from Metaphor and Simile in the Minor Elizabethan Drama In spite however of the endeavor towards an objective and analytical method, such a study as this must be largely subjective. N o attempt is made to take into consideration all metaphor and simile occurring in the authors studied, nor are metaphor and simile, according to the stricter definitions of some writers upon rhetoric and poetics, alone regarded. All tropes (in the ancient sense of the word), in which imagination is felt to be present, are con sidered. Incarnate or faded metaphors are generally neglected, except so far as they illustrate the peculiar diction of dramatic poetry at the time. In general only the more striking, individual, and conscious images are fully enumerated. Of course in such a method the personal equation cannot be entirely elim inated. Quotations of striking and significant tropes will be made to as great an extent as the necessary limits of this paper will permit; in order to save space, page references to standard editions (see bibliographical index), rather than to act and scene, are made for all less important tropes. The sums total of the references under each head and under each author are annexed.' From the preceding explanations, however, it will be understood that these enumerations are more or less inexact and have no abso lute validity but they should be valid for purposes of comparison and generalization. If the limits of space had permitted it would doubtless have been profitable to continue this study so as to include the entire body of the drama from Gorboduc to the closing of the theatres, or at least all the chief dramatists of that period, and to introduce a more constant comparison and refer ence to Shakspere as the great master of dramatic imagery.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Metaphor and Simile in the Minor Elizabethan Drama The aim of this study is partly descriptive, partly theoretical. I have selected eight of the representative dramatists of the reign of Elizabeth and the early years of the reign of James I, not including Shakspere, have made an analysis of the characteristics of each author in his use of metaphor and simile, and in the range and sources of his imagery, and have endeavored to state the results of this study in each case in some detail. In conclusion I have attempted to formulate a few generalizations in regard to the Elizabethan drama as a whole, considered in relation to the characteristic diction and imagery employed in it. This is the descriptive part of the work. At the same time consideration of the theory and the classification of the figures of speech, especially of the higher and more imaginative figures, has been forced upon me by the extreme complexity and the elliptical abruptness and difficulty of many of the characteristic images to be found in the pages of the authors studied. I have however no new definitions or classifications of importance to offer; but the illustrations under the several heads of Simile, Implied Simile, Fable, Proverb, Allegory, Hyperbole, Conceit, and Personification, as herein presented, may possibly serve as material in the elucidation of the subject by others. Some sixteen years ago Dr. Friedrich Brinkmann began to publish an extensive work on the study of Metaphor, of which however only one volume out of several proposed was ever published. This volume contains an extended statement of the theory of metaphor, suggestions and illustrations of various points of view in the study of metaphor, and finally a minute analysis of the principal metaphors which are drawn from domestic animals.

Book excerpt: The aim of the present bibliography is to provide the student of metaphor with an up-to-date and comprehensive (albeit not exhaustive) overview of recent publications dealing with various aspects of metaphor in a variety of disciplines. Where the emphasis is primarily on specific works “about” metaphor, mainly in philosophy, linguistics, and psychology, the list has been supplemented with references to studies where metaphor is explicitly recognized as an instrument of research or analysis (e.g., in literature, or in the elaboration of scientific and religious models) or where its use is illustrated.
