Abstract
nvestigation and analysis of metaphoric-imaginary schemas in the "Al-alaviyat"epic by Mohammad Abd al-Muttalib based on Likaf and Johnson's theory.
According to scholars of rhetoric and traditional and classical linguists, metaphor is word-oriented and limited and exclusive to words. According to them, metaphor is used only in literature and has an aesthetic aspect. But in cognitive linguistics, looking at metaphor is very broad and metaphor is concept-oriented, not word-oriented. From the perspective of cognitive linguistics, not only literature, but also language, including literary language, is the manifestation of conceptual structures such as metaphors, metaphors, and imaginary schemas in the human mind. According to George Likoff and Mark Johnson, metaphor is a means of thinking that is present in human behavior, including language behavior. The present article aims to study and analyze imaginary metaphors in Al-alaviyat by Mohammad Abd al-Muttalib according to the theory of Likaf and Johnson. The results indicate that the poet has conceptualized the abstract and abstract concepts well by means of objective concepts by using the three schemes (volume, power and movement) and beautifully depicted intangible and abstract concepts. After the investigations, it was determined; Out of the total imaginary schemes used in this supplement, 65 percent are volumetric, 18 percent are movement and 17 percent are strength.
