The Michael Jackson of two or three noses ago and the Michael Jackson of today – multiple personalities or conceptual metonymy?
Sanja Berberović

Sažetak
The paper deals with the construction of the figurative meaning of personal names
in expressions of the type the X of Y, in which X is a personal name designating
humans and Y designates a temporal period. Such expressions, used in connection
with the original bearer of the name, are considered to be instances of partitive restrictive
modification. Applying the findings of Barcelona (2003, 2004) and Brdar
and Brdar-Szabó (2007) concerning the figurative meaning of personal names, the
paper illustrates that the ENTITY FOR ACTIVE ZONE metonymy is an essential tool in
explaining how the figurative meaning of personal names arises in expressions of
this type. As a result of partitive restrictive modification, the original bearer of the
personal name is figuratively split into distinct individuals due to the ENTITY FOR
ACTIVE ZONE metonymy.
