Abstract

Highlights • Proposes a research agenda on metaphor analysis for tourism studies. • Situates metaphor analysis within the linguistic turn in social sciences. • Identifies that tourism metaphors always have a selling function. • Metaphors used to sell tourism development to communities have yet to be examined. • Explores the use of ‘heart’ and ‘pillar’ metaphors by tourism policy makers in Ghana.
