- W2476661503 abstract "In many cultures, metaphors are used for describing persons, their appearance, attitudes, and personality. The use of figurative language can sometimes reflect the need to maintain standards of politeness, especially when a negative appraisal about someone's behavior, attitudes, or personality is intended. This chapter reports the results of a set of experiments concerning the use of conventionalized and innovative metaphors in persons description. Persons description provides a very interesting field for testing the compactness hypothesis proposed by Ortony. The chapter concludes that the more promising way to operationalize the notion of compactness is in terms of conceptual complexity: people tend to use fairly conventionalized metaphors for describing the behavior, personality, or appearance of someone because they allow the expression of a bundle of different properties in a condensed, single-word format. It lists acknowledgements, references, and notes. Keywords: compactness hypothesis; conceptual complexity; figurative language; metaphors" @default.
