- Dichotomies, dialectics and dilemmas: New directions for critical leadership studies? (2014, background): “Fauconnier and Turner (2002) build on Koestler’s ideas in their theory of ‘conceptual blending’ which contends that all human thinking and imagination (e.g. language, art, religion, science and other feats of ingenuity) are the result of the blending of metaphors. Suffice it to say here, that there ”
- Space-to-time mappings and temporal concepts (2006, background): “More generally, the contrast between perspective-specific and perspective-neutral temporal metaphors parallels the distinction between temporal relations that are expressed linguistically with tense, which is prototypically deictic (Comrie 1985), as opposed to relations that are expressed with adpos”
