- Summary
- Language and cognition are interconnected, and cognitive linguistics offers methods for analysing how. Here, twelve scholars apply a range of cognitive linguistics methods: conceptual metaphor analysis, cognitive grammar, and the mental space blending and Basic Communicative Spaces Network models. Together, the essays represent ground-breaking and standard-setting work while each raises important interpretive questions for further exploration.
