Abstract
In the dynamic landscape of language and expression, figures of speech play a crucial role in shaping communication. Among these, metonymy stands out as a powerful tool employed in contemporary discourse across diverse domains. From literature to popular culture, metonymy is not only a linguistic device but a nuanced way of conveying meaning, evoking imagery, and fostering connections between differing concepts. Even beyond the realms of literature, metonymy finds a dynamic space in popular culture, including music, film, and visual arts. In the realm of hip-hop lyricism, artists masterfully use metonymy to encapsulate complex narratives within compact verses. The aim of this paper is to explain the basic terminology of metonymy and its types while illustrating the most frequent and most compelling metonymies found in mainstream hip-hop lyrics. This will be achieved by using Lakoff and Johnson’s cognitive linguistic approach to metonymy.
Abstract (croatian)
U dinamičnom pejzažu jezika i izražavanja, figure govora igraju ključnu ulogu u oblikovanju komunikacije. Među njima se metonimija ističe kao moćan alat koji se koristi u suvremenom diskursu u različitim domenama. Od književnosti do popularne kulture, metonimija nije samo jezično sredstvo nego nijansirani način prenošenja značenja, evociranja slikovitosti i podupiranja veza između različitih pojmova. Čak i izvan područja književnosti, metonimija nalazi inovativno mjesto u popularnoj kulturi, uključujući glazbu, film i vizualnu umjetnost. U području hip hop tekstova, umjetnici vješto koriste metonimiju kako bi saželi složene opise unutar kompaktnih stihova. Cilj ovog rada je objasniti osnovnu terminologiju metonimije i njezinih vrsta ilustrirajući najučestalije i najuvjerljivije metonimije koje se nalaze u popularnim hip hop tekstovima. To će se postići korištenjem Lakoffovog i Johnsonovog kognitivnolingvističkog pristupa metonimiji.
