Traditional thinking on metaphors has divided them into two camps: dead and alive. Conventional expressions from everyday language are classified as dead, while much rarer novel or poetic metaphors are alive. This title unveils an approach that refutes the rigid dead/alive dichotomy, offering in its place a dynamic model: sleeping and waking.
