Description
Examines the implications of "siege" in TC from cognitive viewpoints. Argues that the siege of Troy as a prototype of "siege" is repeated in metaphorically diversified forms such as Pandarus's enclosure of Troilus and Criseyde, and that this "siege" is structured in terms of different speech agents, cognitive processes, and combinations of different spaces. In Japanese.
