This book is one of these objects, and of course we hope it will have this academic life, accompanying scholars in their daily academic tasks. However, the way we have experienced the book, as editors and authors, is more like a process, very much like a journey. This volume originated as the natural continuation of the work carried out for the special issue for Metaphor in the Social World (2013) on ‘Metaphorical cre- ativity across modes and contexts’. Like many journeys, however, this project has taken its own direction and has led us through various routes and new destinations where it has grown in richness and maturity. The idea for the volume originated within the work carried out in the project funded by UAM-BSCH for cooperation between UAM and North American Universities, more specifically, the seminar ‘Language, creativity and identity: Multimodal and cultural perspectives’, which took place in Madrid on June 15th and 16th 2014. Fruit of this meeting are the contributions by Ray Gibbs, Eduardo Urios-Aparisi and Larry Zbikowski. We are very grateful to these authors for their patience and commitment all this time and for being our journey travelers from the very beginning. This journey would not have been possible without their presence and inspiration. Most of the other chapters are papers which were presented in other academic events: the seminar ‘Metaphor in discourse: recontextualization across modes and contexts’, which took place in UAM, in Madrid, on October 20th 2017 and was organized, like the previous seminar, by the UAM research group on ‘Language and Creativity’. Some of the papers in the volume were also presented in the panel on ‘Metaphor in discourse’ organized by Laura Hidalgo-Downing and Laura Filardo-Llamas at the XX Conference of AELCO (Spanish Association of Cognitive Linguistics) in Córdoba in 2018. Some other chapters are contributions by scholars who are doing interesting work on the topic of the volume, whose work we have had the opportunity to see and listen to in other recent meetings. We are very grateful to all these authors for joining us on this journey. The academic events which have allowed us to meet in 2014, 2017 and 2018 are the necessary stops in which we have exchanged ideas and advanced in the intellectual development of the volume as a joint project. But, equally importantly,
