Abstract: | The research examines grief and loss portrayal through metaphorical language in A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness through Conceptual Metaphor Theory (CMT) and embodied cognition. The research focuses on abstract emotional experiences of grief because metaphors act as basic elements of human thought by using metaphorical language for their organization. Using the Metaphor Identification Procedure (MIP), the study points important metaphors that include GRIEF IS A BURDEN, ISOLATION IS INVISIBILITY and so on. This research is examined these statements by connecting them to physical experiences The study shows that metaphor serves both linguistic features alongside cognitive and emotional abilities to help people express their inner pain. The research demonstrates how cognitive literary studies benefit from metaphor because it enables characters and readers to understand trauma alongside emotional connection to loss and recovery. Literature depends on metaphor to develop emotional storytelling and this principle extends its value beyond literature for use in educational and counseling and therapeutic practices. |
