Path and Manner Saliency in Polish in Contrast with Russian: A Cognitive Linguistic Study: Brill's Studies in Language, Cognition and Culture, cartea 15

Autor Joanna Łozinska
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 ian 2018
This book presents a contrastive analysis of the lexicalization of motion events in Polish in comparison with Russian. The study, set in the framework of Cognitive Linguistics, adopts a usage-based approach to language analysis. Consequently, it draws on data derived from a wide variety of sources, namely modern novels, translated texts and elicitation tasks. Besides describing the distribution of path and manner information in and outside the verb in the two languages, the book addresses questions concerning the place of Polish and Russian on the continuum of the salience of the manner of motion as well as cognitive mechanisms reflected in the lexicalization patterns of motion events.
