Metaphor: objectivism and subjectivism

The aim of this paper is to analyse Lakoff and Johnson's view on metaphor and how metaphor reveals the limitations of objectivism and subjectivism. The paper is based on Lakoff and Johnson's book Metaphors We Live By and the author analyses the last six chapters in which Lakoff and Johnson criticise the myths of objectivism and subjectivism. Lakoff and Johnson criticise objectivism and subjectivism as inadequate and propose an alternative: the myth of experientialism.
