Rethinking Metonymy - Matzner, Sebastian (Lecturer in Comparative Literature, Lecturer in Comparative Literature, King's College London)

Rethinking Metonymy is the first monograph to confront and resolve issues surrounding problematic appropriations of metonymy in the humanities. By developing a ground-breaking new definition based on analysis of examples in Greek tragedy and lyric poetry, it sets an agenda for far-reaching reconsiderations in literary studies and beyond.
