| Sumario: | Metaphor is defined as a powerful intellectual tool to understand and explain a highly abstract, complicate and theoretical phenomenon. It can be realized that metaphors have functions such as, explaining abstract by using concrete examples, using similes, meaning and defining by comparing. It is known that metaphors are being studied recently as scientific issues besides their daily usage. The main purpose of this study was to determine pre-school teacher candidates’ intellectual images about the concept “music” by using metaphors. The participants are the third and the fourth year students of Department of Pre-school Education, University of Abant Izzet Baysal. Students were asked to complete the sentences "Music is like…….; because ......” with regard to collect information of their music perceptions. Collected data are classified by categories. According to the results, it is observed that teacher candidates defined music by using various metaphors. Teacher candidates stated 58 metaphors about music and it is mostly described as life”. These metaphors are combined in 11 categories which are: “mood”- love (3) and imagination (3), “restful”-rain (2), “healer”-therapy (3) and “medicine” (3), “lifeblood”- food (2), “joyful”- child (1), “nature”- rain (2) and star (2), “friend”- close friends (2), “life”- life (14) and “other”- tale (2). |
