Uniwersyteckie Czasopisma Naukowe“You Can Compare It to a Car, Because a Car Gives You That Kind of Freedom”: Automotive Metaphors and Comparisons in the Narratives of Trainers and Guide Dog Handlers
Słowa kluczowe:
automobility, blindness, disability, guide dog, mobility, white cane, visual impairmentAbstrakt
This article examines the metaphorical comparison of guide dogs to cars in the narratives of visually impaired handlers and trainers. Based on qualitative data collected in Poland and Slovakia, it explores how this metaphor is used to convey experiences of mobility, independence, trust, and competence. The car metaphor—found in references to specific brands, vehicle types, and driving experiences—helps articulate the practical and emotional value of guide dogs, often in contrast to the white cane. Framed through mobility studies and ecological model of disability, the analysis shows that guide dogs, like cars, extend handlers’ agency and facilitate smoother integration into everyday spatial and social environments. At the same time, this metaphor reflects broader imaginaries of research participants shaped by dominant norms, symbols, and values related to automobility.
