Metaphor and Film - The Concept of Poetic Metaphor
analogy- is a process of reasoning from parallel cases, but with the two cases remaining separate and unchanged.
-in analogy the mind moves from the common factors to clinch a point or elaborate an argument and the common factors are pre established they are generally accepted or are believed to be the case (connection between the subject/parallel are accepted literally)
-in metaphor the mind moves from the tenor and the vehicle and back (connections between tenor and vehicle are accepted figuratively)
literal= true to letter, when something cannot be illustrated through verbal behavior = they coin metaphors.
*a word they know connected to a category they posses, to describe something for which they do not have the word or the category
metaphoric tension is built up by a variety of vehicles converging from different angles on the same tenor
symbol- may be conceived as an offshoot of metaphor that has developed characteristics peculiarly its own. It also passes and tenor and vehicle however the treatment of them is different.
