A Yogacara Buddhist Theory of Metaphor
New York, USA: Oxford University Press (2018)
Abstract
The Yogacara school of Buddhist thought claims that all language-use is metaphorical. Exploring the profound implications of this assertion, Roy Tzhoar makes the case for viewing the Yogacara account as a full-fledged theory of meaning, one that is not merely linguistic, but also applicable both in the world and in texts.Author's Profile
