Abstract
In this paper I will focus on the two most relevant approaches for the study of metaphor in the contemporary debate: Conceptual Metaphor Theory and Relevance Theory. I will explore the main theoretical steps from a way to analyse metaphor as a ‘language event’ to the idea we have to consider metaphorical process as a ‘thought event’. This latter point of view is used by Conceptual Metaphor Theory and Relevance Theory in their studies about the nature and role of metaphor.
