Abstract:
A non-traditional approach to imagery is suggested. Imagery is treated as a way of conceptualizing the world; the leading element in it is visual perception of the surrounding world. To analyse a background concept a proposition is built up.
Keywords:
imagery, conceptualization, event, background concept, verbal simile
