Conceptualizations of the Eye in Turkish Idioms

Abstract

This study aims at investigating the word ‘eye’ in Turkish idioms from a cognitive linguistic perspective to reveal Turkish speakers’ cognitive schemas of the ‘eye’, and to propose a cultural model relating the ‘eye’. The database is composed of idioms containing the word ‘eye’ compiled from several monolingual dictionaries of Turkish idioms. Idioms and their definitions are analyzed in terms of their figurative use of abstract concepts. The conceptual metaphors and metonymies were identified on the basis of the Conceptual Metaphor Theory (Lakoff & Johnson, 1980; Kövecses, 2000). The findings reveal that the ‘eye’ is generally conceptualized as EYE FOR THE FUNCTION OF EYE. Additionally, it is used in the conceptualizations of mental faculties (remembering, intention), emotions (love, sadness), personal characteristics (greed, naiveté), physical states (time, death), and cultural elements (evil eye, curses). The study provides further support for the interaction among language, body, cognition and culture in Turkish.
