{"product_id":"arguments-and-metaphors-in-philosophy","title":"Arguments and Metaphors in Philosophy","description":"In this book, Daniel Cohen explores the connections between arguments and metaphors most pronounced in philosophy, because philosophical discourse is both thoroughly metaphorical and replete with argumentation. The metaphors we use \u003ci\u003efor\u003c\/i\u003e arguments, as well as the ways we use metaphors \u003ci\u003eas\u003c\/i\u003e arguments and \u003ci\u003ein\u003c\/i\u003e arguments, provides the basis for a tripartite theoretical framework for understanding and evaluating arguments. There are logical, rhetorical, and dialectical dimensions to arguments, each providing norms for conduct, vocabulary for evaluation, and criteria for success. In turn, the identified roles for arguments in general discourse can be applied to metaphors, helping to explain what they mean and how they work. Cohen covers the nature of arguments, their modes and structures, and the principles of their evaluation. He also addresses the nature of metaphors, their place in language and thought, and their connections to arguments, identifying and reconciling arguments' and metaphors' respective roles in philosophy.","brand":"University Press of America","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54236582183256,"sku":"9780761826774","price":72.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780761826774_8d9a5618-538d-4ffc-92a7-3b199362628c.jpg?v=1769809519","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/arguments-and-metaphors-in-philosophy","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
