Märksõnad:

Offering a cognitive approach to semantics, this highly accessible textbook place cognitive linguistics at the centre of lexical semantics while covering the field in a broader sense. It explains the fundamental concepts underlying the study of lexical semantics and defines them succinctly.

Divided into three parts, the book introduces lexical semantics then explores earlier approaches to lexical meaning. Finally, the author considers cognitive processes and conceptual mappings. Each chapter includes:

· chapter outlines and summaries
· key takeaways
· practice activities
· further reading suggestions.

The author explains the theories of lexical meaning, introduces key concepts used in the study of meaning, and elaborates on key principles for effective analysis of semantic structure. He also explores the mechanisms of analyzing semantic structures and the techniques used to explain their interpretation.

Presenting a cognitive-linguistic description of an important area in language study relating structure to cognition, this book offers a novel approach for producing and interpreting lexical items in English.

Arvustused

A frontier of English lexical semantics! It deserves to be used as a textbook of semantics or other disciplines related to meaning study. * Xu Wen, Professor and Director of the Research Center for Modern Linguistics and Foreign Language Education, Southwest University, China * Linguists tend to concentrate on one level at a time, starting with phonology, going through morphology, and syntax, and finally dealing with the most difficult-but-also-most-meaningful level--semantics. This book represents the end of this journey toward meaning. The book divorces itself from syntax, and takes semantics to new levels of insightIrony, Metaphor, and Metonymy. The tone of the book is entertaining and insightful. * Don Nilsen, Assistant Dean, Arizona State University Emeritus College, USA *
