device for humans to conceptualize abstract domains Having chosen Lakoff and Johnson‟s Conceptual Metaphor Theory as the analytical framework, 77 samples from English and Vietnamese newspapers were analyzed to address how conceptual metaphors for anger work in English and Vietnamese newspapers as well as indicate the similarities and differences between English and Vietnamese in terms of those conceptual metaphors It aims to enhance the effectiveness of teaching, learning and understanding conceptual metaphors in English and Vietnamese Within the limit of a brief research, the author expect that the two languages - English and Vietnamese - which express the conceptual metaphors involved will reveal some different features of the two cultures iii Table of contents i DECLARATION

IV vi PART A: INTRODUCTION Rationale Over the last decades, newspapers have made much progress in the world of means of communication to benefit humankind Journalists always take into account language use to catch readers‟ curiosity and excitement; however, sometimes this has created challenges for readers in understanding the metaphors used in their writings Metaphor is an interesting linguistic subject which has attracted the attention of many linguists In traditional linguistics, only metaphor in literature was considered as the main object of study However, in the light of modern cognitive linguistics, not only metaphor in literature but also metaphor in daily life language is investigated More importantly, metaphor does not only serve as a means of expressing thought, it is also a vehicle of cognition, a means which helps realize how human beings‟ cognitive processes take place Metaphor is a tool through which we comprehend an abstract concept in terms of a more concrete concept, which is thus called conceptual metaphor Emotion, as an important aspect of human experience, conceptualized and expressed in metaphorical terms In other words, such an abstract concept is conceptualized and expressed in terms of a more concrete concept by means of metaphor There have been several studies on the function of metaphors in the conceptualization of emotions including both positive and negative ones in English and Vietnamese However, we have scant knowledge about the importance of the basic experiences in emotion conceptualization such as the association of human emotion with internal organs and the cultural views resulting from it For the reasons above, “An investigation into conceptual metaphors denoting „anger‟ in English and Vietnamese newspapers from cognitive semantics perspective” will be a contribution to profound linguistic knowledge of conceptual metaphor which might help Vietnamese teachers, learners, and translators of English understand cultural elements that have a great influence on using metaphorical expressions and use the English language more effectively Significance of the study 2.1 In terms of theory This study is expected to provide useful contributions to studies of linguistic units from cognitive semantic approach, which has subsequently been elaborated in researches in other fields such as psychology, psycholinguist 2.2 In terms of practice This research is expected to be a useful contribution to teaching, learning, and translating emotion metaphors used in English and Vietnamese newspapers The research is also carried out in the hope that its findings will help Vietnamese learners of English enrich their knowledge of conceptual metaphor, understand cultural elements that have a great influence on using metaphorical expressions, and enhance learners‟ evaluable skills in interpreting and translating newspapers as well Aims of the study The study aims at investigating conceptual metaphors denoting “anger” in English and Vietnamese newspapers from 2012 to 2013 in the light of cognitive semantics Specifically, it aims at the following: - Investigating how the concept of “anger” is metaphorically expressed in English and Vietnamese newspapers - Investigating the similarities and differences in expressions of conceptual metaphors denoting “anger” in English and Vietnamese newspapers - Suggesting the implications for the teaching, learning, and translating of conceptual metaphors denoting “anger” in newspapers Scope of the study Due to the limited time, this research investigates only the similarities and differences in expressions of conceptual metaphors denoting “anger” in English and Vietnamese newspapers in the background knowledge of cognitive semantics Methodology 5.1 Research Questions In order to achieve the aims of the study, the following research questions are to be answered: How are concepts for anger metaphorically expressed in English and Vietnamese newspapers? 10 Dyke, P (2013) “Big Bro calls in exorcist” Dailystar http://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/323817/Big-Bro-calls-in-exorcist 11 Dyke, P (2013) “Daley to tell all about life with
