Апстракт

Compound epithets tend to be widely used in contemporary fiction and are thoroughly addressed by rhetoric and stylistic studies. Still, there are few linguistic accounts for these creative utterances in cases when they are based on metonymical shifts. The paper aims to account for the applicability of Conceptual integration theory to metonymy-based compound epithets. The goal is to demonstrate the process of cross-mapping of mental spaces in cases of compound epithet metonymy. By using the fictional discourse examples dependant on the context, we shall provide an explanation for the process behind these metonymical constructions in terms of cross-mapping of different mental spaces.
