Some productive metaphoric macro-models are identified and analysed, archi-metaphors as well as culturemes, analysing how the "experiential" and "cultural" motivational backgrounds can interact. We also investigate how grammatical metaphors depend on the underlying images and how cognitive mappings can be reversed.}, journal = {Journal of Social Sciences}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
