I. Introduction
Advertising is all around us. Advertisements have become a important part of our life and there is a lot of literature about the language of advertising from a wide range of perspectives, such as anthropology, sociology, linguistics, literary criticism and so on. Though, a few studies have touched on metaphor used in advertisements; nearly most researchers in the field regard metaphor as a persuasive and effective means used by advertisers. Metaphor previously was considered as a figure of speech in literature.
In 1980, scholars George Lakoff and Mark Johnson published the book Metaphors We Live By. It claimed that metaphor is one of our most significant tools for attempting to comprehend what cannot be understand totally: our feelings, aesthetic expressions, moral practices, and spiritual awareness. Lakoff and Mark Johnson first come up with conceptual metaphor theory in this book, and tried to research human metaphor from the perspective of human cognition. 英语广告语中的隐喻概念:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_39676.html
