About the Editors
Sarah E. Duffy is Senior Lecturer in English Language and Linguistics at Northumbria University. Her research examines how people use metaphor to understand and reason about abstract concepts, with a particular focus on time and individual variation. More broadly, she investigates how metaphor and temporal framing operate in institutional contexts, including education and the legal system. Her work appears in journals such as Cognitive Linguistics, Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, and Metaphor and Symbol, and she is co-author (with Michele Feist) of Time, Metaphor, and Language: A Cognitive Science Perspective (Cambridge University Press, 2023).
Nick Riches is a Senior Lecturer in
Speech and Language Pathology at Newcastle University. His work has
investigated language and cognitive processes in children and adolescents with
autism and developmental language disorders, and he is particularly interested
in usage-based accounts of these populations.
