Abstract:

Cognitive linguistics is purported to be a usage-based approach, yet only
recently has research in some of its subfields turned to spontaneous spoken
(versus written) language data. The collection of Alan Cienki’s Ten Lectures
on Spoken Language and Gesture from the Perspective of Cognitive Linguistics
considers what it means to apply different approaches from within this field
to the dynamic, multimodal combination of speech and gesture.

The lectures encompass such main paradigms as blending and mental space
theory, conceptual metaphor and metonymy, construction and cognitive grammars,
image schemas, and mental simulation in relation to semantics. Overall, Alan
Cienki shows that taking the usage-based commitment seriously with
audio-visual data raises new issues and questions for theoretical models in
cognitive linguistics.

The lectures for this book were given at The China International Forum on
Cognitive Linguistics in May 2013.

In the e-book version all handouts have been made available at the back. All
audio of the lectures as well as the handouts are available for free, in Open
Access, here: https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.c.3663586
