RaAM is pleased to offer its members substantial discounts on subscriptions to two key journals in the field:


Metaphor and the Social World

Editors: Lynne Cameron and Graham Low


Metaphor and the Social World aims to provide a forum for researchers to share with each other, and with potential research users, work that explores aspects of metaphor and the social world. The term “social world” signals the importance given to context (of metaphor use), to connections (e.g. across social, cognitive and discourse dimensions of metaphor use), and to communication (between individuals or across social groups).
