The article explores regular patterns of interaction between metaphor and metonymy in Skaldic poetry. The author identifies a basic syntactic rule that is imperative for the decoding of the kenning; it states that the determiner of the kenning  always  precedes the base word, not vice versa, e. g.  vinda mundlaug  ›the winds’ washbasin‹ (in Bragi’s ›Ragnarsdrápa‹) or  hríðar naust  ›the storm’s boathouse‹ (in ›Harmsól‹, Str. 23) both referring to the sky. Drawing on modern cognitive and pragmatic approaches to metaphor and symbol, the author identifies an entrenched decoding path with a metonymical extension providing the basis for a metaphorical leap ‒ much in the sense of Heusler’s »Metapher mit Ablenkung«. This interaction process, it iss argued, provides a cognitive path that eases the reception of skaldic verse and hence compensates for formal and structural complexity.
