The Poet

جیمز گیری: جیمزگیری، سخن گفتن استعاری

جیمزگیری، سخن گفتن استعاری

جیمز گیری، نویسنده و علاقمند به کلمات قصار، به شفاف‌سازی جزئی ثابت و جذاب از زبان انسان می‌پردازد: استعاره. گیری معتقد است استعاره، که از ارسطو تا به الویس یار نویسنده‌ها بوده است، تصمیمات ما را به شکلی ظریف تحت‌تاثیر قرار می‌دهد.

Metaphors are everywhere, woven into language and thought, with people using about six every minute. They help people grasp abstract ideas, trigger emotions, and shape expectations more vividly than literal statements ever could. Research shows that metaphors can even sway financial decisions and influence judgments in ways most never notice. By making connections between what is known and unknown, metaphors power creativity, learning, and scientific breakthroughs.
