Abstract
The purpose of the present article is to explore V. Nabokov”™s “Ada” through the lens of sensory metaphor. Sensory metaphor is one of the metaphor subtypes linked to such areas of perception as visual, auditory, gustatory, olfactory, tactile in temperature, tactile in texture. Through sensory metaphors one can better understand the notion of embodied cognition, as they are rooted in our day-to-day reasoning. V. Nabokov makes abundant use of sensory metaphors in his “Ada” to trigger the most original associations and give rise to the most vivid images in the minds of the reader. For instance, aroma is interpreted through the category of light; terror – through the category of food; message, time, desire, etc. – through the category of texture, etc. In terms of sensority, tactile in texture metaphors constitute an overwhelming majority.References
