Abstract:

Bringing together contributions from a group of prominent researchers, within
a cognitive-linguistic framework, this volume sheds light on linguistic
structures and usages characteristic of the Chinese language, including
noun-verb inclusion, the conceptual spatialization of actions, existential
constructions, conceptual structures and coherence, idioms and metaphors,
language acquisition of caused motion, etc.

The contributions are committed to the principle of “converging evidence” that
has been advocated in Cognitive Linguistics since its inception. Some studies
in this volume combine introspective methods with theoretical analysis, while
others rely on corpus-based, experimental and neuroscientific methods.
Featuring diverse topics and multiple methods, this collection will be useful
to readers who are interested in the grammatical and conceptual structure of
Chinese, as well as in the state-of-the-art of Cognitive Linguistics in China.
