Abstract:

Combining theory from cognitive semantics and pragmatics, this book
offers both a new model and a new usage-based method for the
understanding of intersubjectivity, and how social cognition is
expressed linguistically at different levels of complexity. Bringing
together ideas from linguistics and theory of mind, Tantucci
demonstrates the way in which speakers constantly monitor and project
their interlocutor's reactions to what is being said, and sets out
three distinct categories of social cognition in first language
acquisition and language change. He also shows how this model can be
applied in different settings and includes a range of examples from
languages across the globe, to demonstrate the cross-linguistic
universality of the model. Additionally the book offers insights into
the gradient dimension of intersubjectivity in language evolution and
across the autistic spectrum. Original and innovative, it will be
invaluable for researchers in cognitive linguistics, pragmatics,
historical linguistics, applied linguistics and cognitive psychology.
