The Language Myth: Why Language Is Not an Instinct
ISBN: 9781107619753 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 314 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Language is central to our lives, the cultural tool that arguably sets us apart from other species. Some scientists have argued that language is innate, a type of unique human 'instinct' pre-programmed in us from birth. In this book, Vyvyan Evans argues that this received wisdom is, in fact, a myth. Debunking the notion of a language 'instinct', Evans demonstrates that language is related to other animal forms of communication; that languages exhibit staggering diversity; that we learn our mother tongue drawing on general properties and abilities of the human mind, rather than an inborn...

How Words Mean: Lexical Concepts, Cognitive Models, and Meaning Construction
ISBN: 9780199234677 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. How Words Mean introduces a new approach to the role of words and other linguistic units in the construction of meaning. It does so by addressing the interaction between non-linguistic concepts and the meanings encoded in language. It develops an account of how words are understood when we produce and hear language in situated contexts of use. It proposes two theoretical constructs, the lexical concept and the cognitive model. These are central to the accounts of lexical representation and meaning construction developed, giving rise to the Theory of Lexical Concepts and Cognitive Models (or...

Language and Time: A Cognitive Linguistics Approach
ISBN: 9781107043800 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Using language and thought to fix events in time is one of the most complex computational feats that humans perform. In the first book-length taxonomy of temporal frames of reference, Vyvyan Evans provides an overview of the role of space in structuring human representations of time. Challenging the assumption that time is straightforwardly structured in terms of space, he shows that while space is important for temporal representation, time is nevertheless separate and distinguishable from it. Evans argues for three distinct temporal frames of reference in language and cognition and...

Language, Cognition and Space: The State of the Art and New Directions
ISBN: 9781845535018 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 526 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Spatial perception and cognition is fundamental to human abilities to navigate through space, identify and locate objects, and track entities in motion. Moreover, research findings in the last couple of decades reveal that many of the mechanisms humans employ to achieve this are largely innate, providing abilities to store cognitive maps for locating themselves and others, locations, directions and routes. In this, humans are like many other species. However, unlike other species, humans can employ language in order to represent space. The human linguistic ability combined with the human...

The Cognitive Linguistics Reader
ISBN: 9781845531102 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 672 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Cognitive Linguistics is the most rapidly expanding school in modern Linguistics. It aims to create a scientific approach to the study of language, incorporating the tools of philosophy, neuroscience and computer science. Cognitive approaches to language were initially based on philosophical thinking about the mind, but more recent work emphasizes the importance of convergent evidence from a broad empirical and methodological base. The Cognitive Linguistics Reader brings together the key writings of the last two decades, both the classic foundational pieces and contemporary work. The essays...
