Description

Explore the complex connections between language and thought in Relational Semantics and the Anatomy of Abstraction. Part of the Routledge Studies in Linguistics series, this book examines meaning relations by bridging the gap between traditional conceptual analysis and modern cognitive semantics methodologies. Sovran investigates how analyzing meaning relations among cognate words can reveal the underlying structure of both the mental and actual lexicon. By operating on the premise that language reflects thought, the text provides a deep look into the metaphorical and perceptual models that form the basis of abstract concepts. This volume is designed for those interested in how abstraction functions within language, including its specific role in poetic metaphors. It offers a comprehensive look at major contemporary linguistic questions, making it a valuable resource for students and researchers in cognitive psychology and linguistics.
