Description

The book gathers papers delineating new perspectives for Cognitive Linguistics research. While prominent scholars demonstrate how application can inform theory, their younger colleagues prove the value of CL methodologies in novel applications. The book is also of use to scholars of other disciplines, such as discourse and translation studies, theology, rhetoric, speech therapy and so forth.
