For metaphor, we may suggest, is not simply a matter of what appears on the printed page or in, for example, the work of visual art; it is rather the bodying-forth [stet] of sets of correspondences of which, in some sense, we have all, in specific interpretative communities, been aware in what we might define as a liminal way, hovering somewhere around the threshold of articulation.
David Punter, Metaphor

The Cultural Council of the Ages was not a place anyone could visit. It did not appear on maps, or in archives, or even in the footnotes of obscure academic papers. It existed somewhere between nostalgia and imagination.
Belinda Kelderhouse
