“All public life sustains itself through metaphor.”
David Punter, Metaphor
tags: public

“Metaphor thus becomes, crucially, a contested field; it also becomes visible as a weapon in the ideological armoury by means of which history is interpreted, or reinterpreted, from the perspective of the conquerer.”
David Punter, Metaphor

“...only too frequently, our metaphors are not our own.”
David Punter, Metaphor
