About this Item
Hardcover. First Edition. 200pp+ index. Very good hardback in a price clipped, slightly darkened and rubbed jacket that has some minor loss at the extremities, a chip to the head of the spine and a few small closed tears. In "Symbol and Metaphor in Human Experience," Martin Foss delves into the profound role that symbols and metaphors play in shaping human perception and communication. Foss explores how these linguistic tools are not merely ornamental but foundational to understanding and expressing complex concepts. By analyzing various symbols and metaphors across different cultures and contexts, Foss reveals how they help individuals make sense of their experiences and articulate abstract ideas. His work underscores the integral role of these elements in bridging the gap between the tangible and the intangible, offering a deeper insight into the ways humans construct meaning and relate to the world around them.
