THE PROBLEMS OF THE GENDER METAPHORIZATION

E. V. Reshetnikova
Keywords: gnoseology, gender metaphors, creativity, mediation, agonic processes
Pages: 250-256

Abstract

The gnoseological status of a gender metaphor is connected with the process of sense formation. Its place in the taxonomy of fundamental metaphors defines necessary characteristics for the explication of the integrity of principles of scientific knowledge development, such as creativity, mediation and agonic processes. The author undertakes an attempt to pose a problem of categorization of the world by the gender metaphors in the conditions of post-nonclassical science. It allows looking anew at the role of expressive language instruments in the process of scientific knowledge development.
