| Sumario: | This paper discusses the role of isotopy in textual metaphorization, as described by Leite (2007). The article starts from the hypothesis that metaphorization is a particular mode of metaphor manifestation that resizes interpretation to discourse level, beyond word and sentence levels. As far as isotopy is concerned, the study proposes that it works as a device which can reveal and regulate the co-existence of two or more metaphorical meaning plans within text, during interpretation, which warrants metaphor upgrading to discourse level. |
