| Publisher Description: This study in cognitive poetics offers eight detailed analyses of Elizabeth Bishop's poems and their drafts. It is the first full-length cognitive poetic study of a single author and her composition process. The author turns to cognitive linguistics in interpreting the poet's alternate construals and demonstrates how our awareness of such universal structures of invention as categorization, image schemas, metaphor, conceptual integration, metonymy, idealized cognitive models, licensing stories can assist us in deducing the original movement of writing during genetic analysis or in arriving at a reading of the poem's published version. |
