Abstract:

This book explores the importance of Cognitive Linguistics for specialized 
language within the context of Frame-based Terminology (FBT). FBT uses 
aspects of Frame Semantics, coupled with premises from Cognitive Linguistics 
to structure specialized domains and create non-language-specific knowledge 
representations. Corpus analysis provides information regarding the syntax, 
semantics, and pragmatics of specialized knowledge units. Also studied is the 
role of metaphor and metonymy in specialized texts. The first section explains 
the purpose and structure of the book. The second section gives an overview of 
basic concepts, theories, and applications in Terminology and Cognitive 
Linguistics. The third section explains the Frame-based Terminology approach. 
The fourth section explores the role of contextual information in specialized 
knowledge representation as reflected in linguistic contexts and graphical 
information. The final section highlights the conclusions that can be derived 
from this study.
