SANCHEZ RIVERA, Sonia Liced. WHAT WE TALK ABOUT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT LOVE? AN ANALYSIS OF LOVE METAPHORS IN SOME POP ROCK SONGS IN SPANISH. Linguist.lit. [online]. 2020, n.77, pp.106-125.  Epub 25-Oct-2021. ISSN 0120-5587.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.lyl.n77a05.

The analysis of love metaphors will be presented in some pop rock songs in Spanish, according to the postulates of Lakoff and Johnson (1987). The work arose from the conceptualization and application of metaphors in music. It was started from the conception of metaphors within the cognitive plane. From the study of 40 songs, it was concluded that love metaphors may have two meanings: on the one hand, they associate love with other ambivalent domains; on the other hand, they show their appreciation, by conceiving it as a social, cultural, and ideological construction.

Palabras clave : metaphor; love; language; pop rock in Spanish; music; discourse.
