Resumo:  This paper aims at describing the role and the different manifestations of metaphor in scientific discourse, drawing a distinction between creative and conventional metaphors. To this end, a corpus composed of nineteen Nobel lectures, delivered by nineteen women, will be analysed by means of the critical discourse analysis theoretical and methodological tool, with particular attention to the framing that metaphor produced in scientific discourse. Our analysis shows that scientific discourse tends to privilege conventional metaphors, rather than creative ones, above all as far as the main shared domain concepts are concerned.

Um corpus composto por dezanove Palestras Nobel, pronunciadas por dezanove mulheres, será analisado para este efeito, através da ferramenta de análise crítica do discurso, com particular atenção para o enquadramento que a metáfora pode produzir no discurso científico. A nossa análise mostra que o discurso científico tende a privilegiar as metáforas convencionais, em vez das criativas, sobretudo no que diz respeito aos principais conceitos de domínio partilhado.Edunisc2023-02-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://online.unisc.br/seer/index.php/signo/article/view/1795010.17058/signo.v48i91.17950Signo; v. 48 n. 91 (2023): Metáfora na ciência: entre cognição e discurso; 4-221982-2014reponame:Signo (Santa Cruz do Sul.
