L’ASPECT MÉTAFORIQUE DES PROVERBES
The Metaphorical Aspect of Proverbs

Summary/Abstract: Proverbs have their generical context in the series of popular or cult literary creations. The generical context can initially be considered particular, with a repeated experience, subtle observation or a practical knowledge, to which it is granted the general signifiance particular to the proverb, this representing the metaphorical aspect of the proverb. The presence of the metaphor represents one of the classification criteria between the proverb and the other literary formulas. In this study I discuss the definition of the metaphor and its role in Anton Pann s proverbs.
