This thesis explores the intricate relationship between the concepts "Time" and "Space" and their realization in English and American political discourse. By investigating their historical evolution, analyzing their role as social constructs, and examining their
diverse manifestations in political speeches, articles, and debates, the thesis reveals the profound impact of time and space on shaping political narratives, constructing ideological frameworks, and influencing public opinion.
A comparative analysis of English and American political discourse unveils distinct patterns. English political discourse often evokes a sense of continuity and tradition through temporal references, while spatial metaphors construct national identity and territorial boundaries. American political discourse, in contrast, emphasizes progress and innovation, spatially portraying the nation as a beacon of freedom and opportunity.
Despite these differences, both cultures utilize temporal references to establish historical context and spatial metaphors to illustrate political concepts.
The thesis concludes by discussing the implications for English language teaching, highlighting the importance of enhancing student understanding, promoting cross-cultural awareness, and fostering critical thinking and linguistic sensitivity.
