Title: Language, Culture, and Mind.
Description: Stanford : Center for the Study of Language and Inf, 2004. Paperback. 622 pp.(Stanfords Monographs in Linguistics). - Language, Culture, and Mind is a stimulating collection exploring the ways that cognitive, social, and cultural categories are revealed through language. Contributors use methods such as psycholinguistic experiments and observations of natural discourse to probe how such categories are organized, with grammatical and semantic analyses-in modern cognitive frameworks-augmenting these approaches. Some of the phenomena studied include the linguistic expression of space and causality; aspect, classifiers, negation, and complement constructions; and metaphor, metonymy, and conceptual blending across different domains of human experience. The result is a fresh perspective on the way language relates to thought and culture.English text. Condition : very good. Mailorder only - Alleen verzending mogelijk. Book condition : very good.
