| Popis | This chapter examines the distribution of metaphors in three chapters (Vyškov, Střípky [Fragments] and Naděje [Hope]) of the book Do temnoty [In the Darkness] by Czech army veteran Pavel Stehlík. The chapters were selected using a random selection method. Metaphors were detected on the basis of metaphorical sentiment, which was based on the consensus of three linguists; the results were processed quantitatively, we examined not only the general value of the chapter's metaphorisation (what we call the metaphorical index), but also and above all the evolution of metaphorisation in the text. This aspect was captured using a moving average graph, which is commonly used, for example, in the visualisation of quality control. We found that the three selected chapters were treated individually in terms of metaphorical development: in Vyškov, metaphorical peaks and troughs alternate dramatically, in Fragments, metaphorical fluctuations are absent, and in Hope, metaphorical peaks predominate, concentrated in the second part of the text. Military slang can also be seen as one of the factors contributing to the metaphorisation of the text. |
