Description

• Title:
  Memory-based and on-line processing of metaphoric sarcasm
• Creator:
  Katz, Albert
• Description:
  Metaphoric statements such as “He certainly is Romeo to her Juliet” can be uttered not only as a metaphor but used sarcastically to make a commentary on the metaphor. So how does one determine the intent of the speaker who utters such a statement? Evidence is reviewed about the constraints that are available for use by someone who reads or hears such a statement and an experiment is described which indicates that at least some of these constraints work on-line, that is during the moment-to-moment processing of the statement as it is encountered.
