Specialists and international researchers from 12 countries have met at the 4th International Congress of Metaphor and Discourse "New Cognitive Domains in the 21st century" to discuss recent contributions in this field of semantics. Gerard Steen, professor of the University of Amsterdam, has offered the inaugural lecture titled "Life is life: What Deliberate Metaphor Theory has to offer to Conceptual Metaphore Theory".
