As they had set the basis of understanding these two conceptual mechanisms, a new wave of interest arose, as poetic metaphor became more and more prominent in poetry, therefore music too. The traditional examples of conceptual metaphors and metonymy were now replaced with new and intriguing ones. This is becoming clear when listening to the band The 1975, who’s the most prominent feature in their musical style is control of metaphors and metonymies. With their quite intimate and personal approach to music, the lyrics give an insight in the mind of the primary lyricist and lead vocalist, Matty Healy. Healy shows a great understanding of the two conceptual mechanisms, as he manipulates and modifies some, on the surface, basic and common, metaphors and metonymies and arranges them to his understanding and view of concepts, which is final...

It was a circle in which the future and the past chased each other round. ", is how William Gaunt, a famous English actor, described the artistic movement of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. As Dante Gabriel Rossetti was one of the founders of the group, it was only natural that his sister Christina Rossetti would fall under the influence of the rebellion against cultural norms of that time. Her simple and short poem paints a picture prevalent for the Pre-Raphaelitism: a woman on her death bed with her lover mourning over her. This paper discusses how "After Death" appears as an example of Pre-Raphaelite poetry about tragic love.

The aim of this paper is to explain the basic terminology of metaphor and metonymy while illustrating their presence and functioning in The 1975’s lyrics, giving a comprehensive analysis of some of the most creative examples.
