This article presents an analysis of spatial and sexual metaphors in Luis Goytisolo's tetralogy "Antagonía" based on a discourse dynamics approach. The study identifies and analyzes metaphorical elements according to cognitive, linguistic, affective, and socio-cultural factors, focusing on cognitive and linguistic aspects. The author also explores the processes of source redeployment, development, literalization, and unrealism to explain the details of discourse metaphors in the text. The results reveal the intricate web of spatio-sexual metaphors and the diverse range of techniques employed by the author to portray sexuality.
This article presents an analysis of the metaphors that relate the domains of space and sexuality in the tetralogy Antagon & iacute;a by Luis Goytisolo, based on a discourse dynamics approach. Metaphoremes such as and are identified and analysed according to cognitive, linguistic, affective, and socio-cultural factors, with a focus on the first two. I also draw from the processes of source redeployment, development, literalization, and unrealism to explain the details of several discourse metaphors in the text. These are framed in their immediate and extended contexts. The results show the complex web of spatio-sexual metaphors readers encounter in the text and the rich array of resources the author uses to portray sexuality.
