Abstract:
The article examines a modern Russian political metaphor in terms of a discourse-cognition method, which helps to go further in metaphor analysis exploring metaphor as a mental operation, means of cognition, conceptualization, assessment and explanation of the world. The analysis of the event-structure metaphors contributes to highlighting tendencies in political discourse development and to defining the degree of the social changes impact on the function of political language.
