Imagination im Diskurs : zur Modellierung metaphorischer Kommunikation und Kognition

This thesis discusses our everyday creativity - our ability to view something metaphorically as something else and thus figuratively understand the complexities of complex events and situations in the social world. It is part of an international project on the "Comparative Analysis of Social Imagination", funded by the DFG and conducted at the University of Bielefeld between 2000 and 2002. Part I is a theoretical discussion of the need to include sociocultural aspects of metaphor into Conceptual Metaphor Theory. Part II consists of analyses of the cultural imagination of space (Europe) and time (the end of communism).
