Recenzii

This is a really useful presentation of key ideas in the field. I was pleased to see cognitive poetics included as an aspect of cognitive linguistics. There is also a good mix of theoretical and field-based work.
This is a resource book for both beginners and advanced researchers in Cognitive Linguistics. It covers the basic topics as well as the current trends in Cognitive Linguistics. It includes the founding fathers' elaboration on their own very original theories that started the enterprise as Cognitive Linguistics as well as those currently active scholars' theories that have emerged in the progress of Cognitive Linguistics in the past few decades. This book should occupy a permanent place on every cognitive linguist's bookshelf.
This companion is a substantial and timely addition to the literature on Cognitive Linguistics. Its scope and depth make it attractive both for newcomers to the field and for established researchers. The section on New Directions and Applications, in particular, showcases some of the most promising and fascinating current developments in this expanding area of research.
This research companion provides an excellent state-of-the-art overview of contemporary cognitive linguistics. It introduces the reader to foundational cognitive linguistic frameworks such as cognitive grammar and construction grammar, conceptual metaphor, conceptual metonymy, and conceptual blending, as well as applications of cognitive linguistics in language acquisition and pedagogy, and recent advances in quantitative corpus linguistics. It will be an invaluable source of information and inspiration for the general reader and specialist alike.
