A Yogacara Buddhist Theory of Metaphor
Tzohar, Roy (Senior Lecturer, Senior Lecturer, Tel Aviv University)
The Yogacara school of Buddhist thought claims that all language-use is metaphorical. Exploring the profound implications of this assertion, Roy Tzhoar makes the case for viewing the Yogacara account as a full-fledged theory of meaning, one that is not merely linguistic, but also applicable both in the world and in texts.
