Metafora govornika i sugovornika u putopisnom diskursu
Metaphor of the speaker and hearer in the travelogue discourse

Summary/Abstract: One of the fundamental issues of contemporary stylistics is the issue of the distribution of linguistic means through which the speaker and hearer are actualized in different functional styles, their genres and texts. The aim of this paper is to analyze and interpret the replacement (synonymy or transposition) of the first person singular, as the speaking person, by its grammatical-metaphorical synonyms (enallage of the person) in the travel writing discourse. As travel writing discourse shows specificity in relation to other genres when it comes to replacing the first person singular with figurative lexis (tropes), the goal of this paper will be the analysis and interpretation of specific figurative lexis as a means of referencing the speaker/ emitter and hearer/recipient in travel writing discourse. The final goal of the work is to point out the connotative value of the analyzed grammatical and lexical metaphors in the travel writing discourse and their specificity genre expression. The corpus is an anthological source of Bosnian travel writing of the 20th century.
