    "title": "Assessing Claims of Metaphorical Salience Through Corpus Data",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "In the linguistic domain, conceptual metaphors have been\nshown to structure grammar, the lexicon, and abstract\nreasoning. Much recent research on conceptual metaphor\ncomes from corpus examination, which is increasingly\nfocused on developing quantificational tools to reveal cooccurrence\npatterns indicative of source and target domain\nassociations. Some mappings between source and target are\ntransparent. However, other metaphors, especially those that\nstructure abstract processes, are more complex because the\ntarget domain is lexically divorced from the source. This\nstudy introduces new techniques directed at the quantitative\nevaluation of metaphorical salience when target and source\nrelationships are nonobvious. Constellations of sourcedomain\ntriggers are identified in the data and shown to\ndisproportionately emerge in topic specific discourse. This\nmeasurement can be taken as one indicator of conceptual\nsalience among the target speech community.",
