Abstract: |
Our study examines the use of metaphors in the German discourse regarding European monetary and fiscal policy. Though this policy area sparked considerable interest among linguists, so far there is a lacuna concerning interdisciplinary comparative studies that examine metaphorical expressions in regard to their divergent political use. This study addresses this desideratum by posing two explorative research questions: Which metaphors shape the political debate on European monetary and fiscal policy? And is there a relationship between the divergent use of metaphors and the political perspective they entail?</p> As a means to examine these questions, we develop an innovative methodological triangulation that combines qualitative, hermeneutic metaphorical analyses with quantitative, data-driven approaches of corpus linguistics. By analyzing the communication of eleven political actors during three formative debates on Eurozone policy, we isolate the most salient metaphors and compare their political usage. Our results bring forth four types of metaphorical expression. These can be distinguished by their relative openness in concern to political perspective and their respective referent. Thereby, this study firstly provides an important guide to understanding the debate at hand; secondly, it sharpens the theoretical grasp in concern to the comprehension of political metaphors as a whole; and thirdly, we contribute a notable stake to the methodical study of metaphorical expressions in the field of applied linguistics.</p> |
