USING METAPHOR OF WOUND AS AN EXAMPLE OF ENGLISH NOVEL

Abstract

It is known that the means of artistic language are widely used in works of art. Although the means of artistic language are different, they also show that language is semantic. Metaphor, one of the means of literary language, is widely expressed in examples of world literature. Metaphor serves to express the purpose that the writer wants to express. Kazuo Isiguro is one of the most influential writers in the world, especially in modern English literature. In 2017, he won the Nobel Prize for his novels. His work is multifaceted. Today, the author is a writer who reveals aspects of the Japanese and English nation. The different interpretations of the metaphor analyzed in Kazuo Isiguro’s novels are revealed in the example of the fate of the novel’s protagonists. The metaphor is interpreted differently in the novels of Kazuo Isiguro. Especially, heart injury is widely interpreted in novels through metaphor. As long as the author expresses the trauma of the heart through metaphor, there is no possibility of cure or forgetfulness. In the novels of the writer, not only the problems of the English nation, but also the fate of people of Japanese descent are widely covered by the heroes.
