Abstract:

The linguistic typology of motion event encoding is one of the central topics
in Cognitive Linguistics. A vast body of typological, contrastive, and
psycholinguistic research has shown the potential, but also the limitations of
the original distinction between verb-framed and satellite-framed languages.
This volume contains ten original papers focusing specifically on the
variation and change of motion event encoding in individual languages and
language families. The authors show that some of the central claims about
motion event encoding need careful re-examination and reformulation and that
individual languages and language families are more variable across space and
time than even a refined typology could neatly capture at this time. The
volume thus contributes to a more detailed and fine-grained foundation for the
investigation of conceptual causes and consequences of different motion-event
encoding strategies.
