長期以來，隱喻只被認為是一種譬喻法，一種文學上的修辭技巧，然而這樣的想法，在仔細觀察生活週遭的語言使用後，很快就會被推翻。隱喻其實並不只是為潤飾而存在，它大量的存在於人類言談及思想中；我們習以為常的語言，其實反映了人類如何了解自己的語言與經驗。 隱喻是人類概念系統的一部分，許多我們思考的方式，我們所經驗的事物都是隱喻的某一種表徵；我們思考以及了解這個世界的方式，其實在某個層面上受到了限制，只是我們往往無所覺。本課程以日常生活的語言現象為基礎，藉由探索「隱喻」的本質與應用，帶領讀者一探人類思維模式的靈活運用，探索思想認知之奧秘，以及文化對人類思維模式的影響。 課程簡介 一、課程名稱：隱喻與認知 二、所屬領域：人文 三、學分數：2 四、任課教師：蘇以文 五、課程說明：
（一）本課程開授目的：本計畫擬透過開設通識課程的方式，以跨學科思考的方式帶領學生研討此經典之內容。本計畫擬由日常生活的語言現象為基礎，逐步帶領學生，進入人類思維模式及認知科學的世界。在1980所出版的Metaphors We Live By, Lakoff and Johnson為認知語言學的研究奠定了里程碑。我們希望藉此能使學生瞭解隱喻及思想的本質，及瞭解其在語言學及認知科學其他研究領域中的角色；使學生能瞭解語言及思想的譬喻性，及文化對人類思維模式的影響及互動關係。
