Printed in Great Britain Paperback,copyright 1972 with 105 pgs. The Critical Idiom Founder editor: John D. Jump (1969-1976) - 25 Metaphor - This book attempts to establish the nature of what is ususally taken to be the most fundamental feature of imaginative language, if not of all language. Metaphor, the principle of the "tranference" of aspects of one object to another object, so that the second object may be spoken of as if it were the first, seems to lie at the heart of the communicative process. It has been said to be the way language works. Dr. Hawkes' account has a considerable range, beginning with Aristotle, and ending with the work of modern linguists and anthropologists.
