The Mind is a Metaphor is a collection of eighteenth-century metaphors of mind; this collection serves as the basis for a scholarly study of the metaphors and root-images appealed to by the novelists, poets, dramatists, essayists, philosophers, belle-lettrists, preachers, and pamphleteers of the long eighteenth century.
