Abstract:

This volume offers readers interested in Discourse Analysis and/or
Socio-Cognitive models of language a closer view of the relationship between
discourse, cognition and society by disclosing how the cognitive mechanisms of
discourse processing depend on shared knowledge and situated cognition. An
inter- and multidisciplinary approach is proposed that combines theories and
methodologies coming from Conceptual Metaphor Theory, Multimodal Metaphor
Theory, Critical Discourse Analysis, Narratology, Systemic Functional
Linguistics, Appraisal Theory, together with the most recent developments of
Socio-Cognitive Linguistics, for the analysis of real communicative events,
which range from TV reality shows, commercials, digital stories or political
debates, to technical texts, architectural memorials, newspapers and
autobiographical narratives. Still, several key notions are recurrent in all
contributions -embodiment, multimodality, conceptual integration, metaphor,
and creativity- as the fundamental constituents of discourse processing. It is
only through this wide-ranging epistemological and empirical approach that the
complexity of discourse strategies in real contexts, i.e. human communication,
can be fully comprehended, and that discourse analysis and cognitive
linguistics can be brought closer together.
