Abstract:

This ground-breaking book marks a milestone in the history of the newly
developed field of Cultural Linguistics, a multidisciplinary area of research
that explores the relationship between language and cultural
conceptualisations. The most authoritative book in the field to date, it
outlines the theoretical and analytical framework of Cultural Linguistics,
elaborating on its key theoretical/analytical notions of 'cultural cognition',
'cultural schema', 'cultural category', and 'cultural metaphor'. In addition,
it brings to light a wide array of cultural conceptualisations drawn from many
different languages and language varieties. The book reveals how the
analytical tools of Cultural Linguistics can produce in-depth and insightful
investigations into the cultural grounding of language in several domains and
subdisciplines, including embodiment, emotion, religion, World Englishes,
pragmatics, intercultural communication, Teaching English as an International
Language (TEIL), and political discourse analysis. By presenting a
comprehensive survey of recent research in Cultural Linguistics, this book
demonstrates the relevance of the cultural conceptualisations encoded in
language to all aspects of human life, from the very conceptualisations of
life and death, to conceptualisations of emotion, body, humour, religion,
gender, kinship, ageing, marriage, and politics. This book, in short, is a
must-have reference work for scholars and students interested in Cultural
Linguistics.
