Abstract
Abstract I have suggested so far that, to a large extent, culture can be thought of as a set of shared understandings of the world, where our understandings are mental representations structured by cultural models, or frames. We also saw in the previous chapter that metaphor is the interaction of two cultural models¬ a source and a target domain, where the source provides much of the structure of the target. It then follows that some of our shared cultural understandings of the world will be based on metaphorical frames, that is, cases where a given cultural frame is structured by another cultural frame, or model.
