Summary/Abstract: The Metaphor in the Activity of Speaking. This paper presents the results of a study in the field of speech linguistics, which investigates linguistic phenomena starting from the activity of speaking, rather than from language. From the perspective of the three linguistic levels proposed by Eugenio Coseriu, the creation of metaphors is situated at the universal level. This paper investigates the common ground that integral linguistics and cognitive semantics share. An illustrative case study is proposed in order to highlight the manner in which the two semantic approaches may complement one another to the benefit of research in the field of metaphor.
