Title: | Metaphorizing martial law: Constitutional authoritarianism in Marcos’s rhetoric (1972–1985) | Authors: | Navera, GS | Issue Date: | 1-Jan-2018 | Publisher: | Project MUSE | Citation: | Navera, GS (2018-01-01). Metaphorizing martial law: Constitutional authoritarianism in Marcos’s rhetoric (1972–1985). Philippine Studies: Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints 66 (4) : 417-452. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1353/phs.2018.0033 | Abstract: | This article discusses the metaphorical constructions of martial law that emerge from selected speeches and publications of Ferdinand Marcos from 1972 to 1985. Using a sociocognitive perspective informed by conceptual metaphor studies, the author surfaces conceptualizations that constitute a schema in which constitutional authoritarianism is central to national life and Marcos as an authoritarian is rendered a democrat. This schema had been sustained throughout Marcos’s authoritarian rule and has become so embedded in Philippine political discourse that it gets to be invoked by political rhetors long after the fall of the Marcos dictatorship. | Source Title: | Philippine Studies: Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints | URI: | https://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/242804 | ISSN: | 2244-1093 2012-2489 |
