Neste estudo, pretende-se desenhar uma abordagem da metáfora na interface metateórica (COSTA, 2007). Pretende-se ilustrar como, por meio do diálogo interdisciplinar, novas abordagens para a metáfora podem ser construídas. Para tanto, de um lado, apresentam-se os fundamentos da Pragmática que explicam como se processam os enunciados metafóricos e, de outro, apresentam-se achados em Neurociência que, por sua vez, descrevem, via coarse-coding hypothesis, os correlatos neurais desse processamento. Postas em diálogo, dessas diferentes áreas emergem propriedades complexas que podem contribuir para o aprofundamento do potencial descritivo e explanatório da abordagem interdisciplinar. Além disso, pode-se também reacender e complexificar as possibilidades de diálogo entre teorias, à medida que propriedades complexas interagem entre si.
