metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: This paper explores the dynamics of how the conceptualizations of deviation from morally
  approved behaviour are verbalized through analysing the conceptual metaphor of deviation
  from straightness/straight line. The core metaphor for describing morality is a straight
  horizontal or vertical line, and violating morality can be represented by a deviation from it.
  However, the verbalization of the development of ideas about morality and moral responsibility
  on a rich historical material has not been previously analyzed linguistically. Two lexemes
  “pravity” and “obliquity” were chosen for the analysis; and their combinability, semantics, and metaphoricity were examined on the extensive corpus of the 15th–17th century texts including
  Google books and English Historical Book Collection (1758 contexts in total). Studying
  the transitional periods in discursive strategies of describing morality as well as the development
  of certain types of discourse is of paramount importance. The paper aims to show how
  religious discourse has influenced philosophical discourse, not only at the level of the issues
  discussed like morality, moral responsibility, and moral judgment, but also at the level of language.
  The specificity of our approach is the combination of corpus and cognitive linguistic
  methods, in particular the study of metaphor. The statistical analysis with the general linear
  model (GLM) was carried out to verify the proposals made and to identify the degree of correlation
  between the type of meaning realized in each context and the type of discourse. The
  results show ideological, discursive, metaphorical, and terminological continuity between religious
  and philosophical discourse.
