概要 | This chapter employs a cognitive linguistics framework to examine metaphor and metonymy in monomodal and multimodal Buddhist iconography as it appears in the form of statues, relief carvings, temple paintings, and other visual forms. It suggests that some of the conceptual mappings, especially those related to primary metaphor, ensure that a minimal initial layer of interpretation is available to most viewers regardless of their familiarity with particular Buddhist traditions. The chapter argues that the conveyed meaning of imagery is, within religious contexts, further enriched and disambiguated through multimodal forms of expression. It considers the implications of the claims, particularly in relation to how metaphor is used to reinforce doctrinal positions and factors contributing to the endurance of religious motifs. |
