Sintesi	Critical Metaphor Analysis (CMA) is a qualitative method for uncovering how metaphorical language constructs, legitimises, or contests power relations and ideological positions in texts. Developed by Jonathan Charteris-Black (2004), it integrates Conceptual Metaphor Theory with the evaluative concerns of Critical Discourse Analysis to reveal the persuasive and ideological work performed by metaphors in political, institutional, and media discourse.	Interpretive discourse analysis is a qualitative approach that examines how language constructs social realities, identities, and meanings within specific contexts. Operating from an interpretivist epistemology, it treats texts and talk not as transparent windows onto the world but as active sites where meaning is negotiated, and it seeks to understand those meanings from the perspective of participants situated within their social and cultural worlds.
