Summary/Abstract: The second part of the chapter eight of the “Rule of Metaphor” deals with further philosophicalimplications of the metaphor. Ricoeur dissipates any suspicion of complicity betweenthe metaphorical and metaphysical. He shows that it is due to a wrong understandingof the metaphor as embedded in nomination, while its proper place, as Ricoeur insists,is in discourse. The living metaphor is a principle animating thought and inciting it “tothink more”. The very relationship between thought and poetry, between speculative andmetaphorical discourses proves to be a dynamic process based on the dialectics betweenthe poetical experience of belonging and the speculative power of distancing.
