Biblical Studies and Interpretation Poetry Analysis and Criticism Language, Metaphor, and Cognition

Abstract

Alec Basson offers a new perspective on the interpretation and exegesis of the Hebrew Psalms of lamentations. His exploration illustrates the link between the psalmists cultural experience, cognitive construal of reality and the metaphorical representations. To appreciate fully the divine metaphors used in the Psalms of Lamentation, one has to examine the cognitive world of the poet.
