Abstract:

This volume presents an up-to-date cognitive-linguistic account of the
Finnish cases that would serve the interests of an international
audience. As the Finnish linguistic tradition has always considered
grammatical cases to be meaningful elements, this volume also
addresses the extensive work by earlier scholars from different
theoretical backgrounds. The volume consists of an introduction and
eleven articles. The introduction presents the system of Finnish cases
and provides a brief overview of the main tenets of cognitive
linguistics, offering guidance for those readers who are not familiar
with cognitive linguistics. Some articles focus on one case and
present a unified account of its functions, others analyse a larger
group of cases that form a system (the local cases), whereas yet
others address the use of cases in certain constructions (such as
expressions of change). This collection of articles also discusses
more general topics, such as the notion of case, questions of
polysemy, the traditional division of cases into grammatical and
semantic, the relationship between inflection and derivation, and the
role of inflection in the categories of adpositions and adverbs.
