Language'

The conference additionally features three invited theme sessions
involving leading scholars both from within and outside cognitive
linguistics.  The theme sessions are:

Cognitive approaches to lexical semantics
Approaches to Conceptual Projection
Making Sense of Embodiment

There is also a satellite event, a tutorial on 'Frame semantics,
