Honeymoons and Pilgrimages: Conceptual Integration and Allegory in Old and New Media.
The cultural-historical manifestations of allegory are extensive and varied. We present detailed analyses of two allegorical texts from disparate historical formations: a Prudentian allegory from 17th century England and a short, 21st century viral video uploaded to YouTube.
