dc.description.abstract | To poignantly demonstrate the effect of metaphors on epistemic as well as affective mechanisms of whole groups, I will look at two echo chambers that have formed within the virtual realm, namely ProAna (pro-anorexia) worlds and the Incel (involuntary celibates) community. Echo chambers such as these exert a particularly heightened use of metaphors as well as a very specialized and adapted vocabulary tailored to the respective needs, which makes them a fruitful space to examine the workings of highly expressive metaphors. In this thesis I outline and defend the basis for the claim that metaphors, used in the specific environment of echo chambers, are used as tools which corroborate, maintain, and reinforce the epistemic as well as affective scaffold that is already in place. | eng |
