Confronting Metaphor in Use: An Applied Linguistic Approach (1st Edition) by Mara Sophia Zanotto, Lynne Cameron, and Marilda do Couto Cavalcanti explores how metaphors function in real-world contexts beyond theory. The book brings together research that analyzes metaphor in spoken and written discourse, showing how people use metaphors to think, communicate, and construct meaning in everyday life. It highlights applied perspectives, examining metaphor in areas such as education, intercultural communication, health, and professional practice. By combining linguistic theory with empirical studies, the volume offers tools and insights for understanding metaphor as a dynamic resource in language use.
