The papers address such topics as spatio-temporal relations, subjectivity and objectivity, virtuality, actuality and reality, iconicity, metaphor, metonymy, signed languages, force dynamics, prototype in linguistics and didactics, socio-political discourse, L2 acquisition, conceptual-linguistic creativity, and many other related problems.
The papers in this book address the most fundamental, currently investigated problems in cognitive linguistics in a wide spectrum of perspectives. Apart from some traditional descriptions of particular metaphors and metonymies, there are analyses of spatio-temporal relations, motion and stillness, iconicity, force dynamics, as well as subjectivity and objectivity in language. The analyses are based on a number of languages: English, Polish, Russian, German, Lithuanian, Italian and Danish. The essays represent case studies, theoretical analyses as well as practical applications.
