Drawing Attention to Metaphor

Book Description
The communicative act of drawing attention to metaphor is a relatively recent topic in metaphor studies and one that has remained contentious from a cognitive perspective. This book brings philologists of ancient languages together with metaphor experts from several modalities to interrogate whether ancient and modern texts and languages draw attention to figurative tropes in similar ways. In this way, the diachronic, multimodal and pluridisciplinary contributions to this volume critically review the theoretical frameworks underpinning metaphor marking and metaphor analysis from a completely new empirical basis.

The collection of projects featured in Drawing Attention serve to inspire designers with a variety of illustration styles and settings that help to add more narrative layers to a brand. From small businesses looking to highlight their charm to bigger ones in need of "humanizing" their touch-points, the book showcases drawings that effectively bridge the creative and commercial to draw attention.

Contemporary Fictions of Attention

Author: Alice Bennett
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1474282636
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 222

Book Description
With the supposed shortening of our attention spans, what future is there for fiction in the age of the internet? Contemporary Fictions of Attention rejects this discourse of distraction-crisis which suggests that the future of reading is in peril, and instead finds that contemporary writers construct 'fictions of attention' that find some value in states or moments of inattention. Through discussion of work by a diverse selection of writers, including Joshua Cohen, Ben Lerner, Tom McCarthy, Ali Smith, Zadie Smith, and David Foster Wallace, this book identifies how fiction prompts readers to become peripherally aware of their own attention. Contemporary Fictions of Attention locates a common interest in attention within 21st-century fiction and connects this interest to a series of debates surrounding ethics, temporality, the everyday, boredom, work, and self-discipline in contemporary culture.
