Journal Title: Закарпатські філологічні студії - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
The article deals with the metaphoric representation of the fiction concept of FEAR in Veronica Roth’s novels «Divergent», «Insurgent», «Allegiant» by means of conventional metaphors (FEAR IS A LIVING BEING, FEAR IS A PERSON, EMOTIONS ARE FORCES, FEAR IS PHYSICAL STATE, EMOTIONS ARE ENTITIES WITHIN A PERSON, EMOTIONS ARE SUBSTANCES IN A CONTAINER, PEOPLE ARE CONTAINERS FOR EMOTIONS, EMOTIONS ARE ELECTROMAGNETIC FORCES, FEAR IS A (moving) OBJECT, EMOTION IS MOTION) and creative author’s metaphors (FEAR IS AN ENEMY (to fight against), FEAR IS AN INSECT, FEAR IS ILLNESS, FEAR IS A (prickly) OBJECT (inside a person)). With the help of cognitive mechanisms of rethinking of conventional metaphors, such as elaboration, extension, combination, we trace the formation of the author’s poetic images of fear.
