The metaphor as instrument for naming the terminal states of ecological invariants
(1991) In Kognitionsvetenskaplig forskning / Cognitive Science Research- Abstract
- Implicit figuration and subjective interpretation make up the conventional basis of the classical discussion of the omprehensiveness and aesthetic quality of the metaphor.Its function and use in Social Science is illustrated as a background to a radical different methodological approach. By means of Perspective Text Analysis it is
