Originally published in 1927, The World of Imagery is a study of the use of metaphor, simile, and other forms of literary imagery from the ancient Hebrew to the early twentieth century. It looks at the theory, including the nature and function of metaphor, followed by the application in various settings and finally showing illustrations and examples in everyday life.
