Les procédés de métaphorisation dans le discours médical arabe : étude de cas
Résumé
This paper examines, through a large corpus of medical texts on organ
transplants, the use of metaphors and their importance in written Arabic medical
discourse. It focuses on the most typical metaphors of this field in order to
establish a typology of the metaphorization process. It aims, thus, to explore the
modalities for conceptualizing a scientific terminology in Arab societies.
