Both shed new light on old debates and suggest fruitful directions for research. Although there has so far been little interaction between the two approaches, Raymond Gibbs and Markus Tendahl (2006, 2008) have recently begun to compare them and consider how they might be combined. This paper is intended as a contribution to that debate. After outlining some parallels and differences between the two approaches, I will discuss how they might fit together to give a fuller picture of the role of metaphor in language and thought.}, doi = {10.2478/v10148-011-0025-1}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/studia-linguistica-uic/artykul/parallels-and-differences-in-the-treatment-of-metaphor-in-relevance-theory-and-cognitive-linguistics} }
