Counting Grains of Sand: A Glance at the Subjective Perception of Time in Latin Poetry from the Perspective of Conceptual Metaphor by Ekin Öyken, Elif Buse Güven Günay

“…Based on a selection of examples from Catullus, Horace, Ovid, Tibullus, Statius, and Phaedrus, the findings from the study support the view that both cognitive processes and narrative techniques are involved in the emergence and perception of metaphors in poetry and indicate that Latin poetry can be interpreted more efficiently from this double perspective. Although the examples were selected from subjective metaphors about time (i.e., metaphors in which the individual perception of the poet or narrator comes to the fore), it has been observed that the cultural and subjective images of time cannot be sharply separated from one another, and they constitute different layers of specific conceptual systems.…”
