- W2611754677 abstract "This chapter explores the cultural metaphor of death and its conceptualisations as reflected in the language of death by analysing a comprehensive collection of Mandarin eulogistic idioms stored in the official eulogy request system in Taiwan. The system holds 59 Buddhist and eight Christian idioms. In the Buddhist category, six cultural metaphors are generalised, including death is rebirth, death is a journey towards rebirth, rebirth is west, life is a circle, a person is a lotus, heaven is full of lotuses and three metaphors are generalised from the idioms for Christians, including death is rest, heaven is an eternal home and death is a return journey. Based on these findings, this chapter discusses the phenomenon of the co-existence of multiple cultural metaphors in eulogistic idioms and the extent of cohesiveness of a metaphor in different sub-groups within a culture. The idiom of death is a journey is also addressed as a deviation of the use of the journey metaphor and a methodological explanation is provided for why this finding is different from that found in previous literature. The chapter closes with the suggestion that Cultural Linguistics (or general cultural linguistics), as part of its methodology, take advantage of specialised databases as resources for research." @default.
