Conceptual Metaphor Theory and Political Discourse Analysis -- Cognitive Linguistic Theory of Metaphor: an Overview -- The Cognitive and Argumentative Nature of Political Discourse -- Conceptual Metaphors as Defeasible Arguments -- Decoding Conceptual Metaphors -- Conceptualizing the Financial Crisis -- Politics is Conflict, Politics is Vision -- The Stars and the Dogs of the Company Called America -- Politics is Ethics -- Symbolic Power and Argumentation -- Sound Moves or Political Leverage? -- Politeness, Argumentative Schemes, and Ethos Construction -- Argumentation on War -- Concluding Thoughts -- Horizons of Truth and the Moral Victory -- Contributions of This Study.

This book considers how we reveal ourselves in the language we employ and the action in which we engage. Maria-Ionela Neagu argues that our conceptualization of the world via metaphor should no longer be taken for granted. On the contrary, it must be critically challenged and evaluated, steering argument towards a particular line of action. This book places political discourse at the crossroads of cognitive linguistics and transpersonal psychology to highlight the role of conceptual metaphors "in" and "as" arguments. Exploring the interface between argumentation theories and cognitive semantics, Neagu integrates the analysis of conceptual metaphors into the framework of practical reasoning, arguing that political discourse bridges the mental void engendered by people's needs and frustrations. This empirical investigation is centred on the corpus of the American Presidential debates in 2008, as well as Barack Obama's 'State of the Nation' (2009), and 'State of the Union Address' (2010, 2011).
