Abstract:

Iconicity: East Meets West presents an intersection of East-West scholarship
on Iconicity. Several of its chapters thus deal with Asian languages and
cultures, or a comparison of world languages. Divided into four categories:
general issues; sound symbolism and mimetics; iconicity in literary texts; and
iconic motivation in grammar, the chapters show the diversity and dynamics of
iconicity research, ranging from iconicity as a driving force in language
structure and change, to the various uses of images, diagrams and metaphors at
all levels of the literary text, in both narrative and poetic forms, as well
as on all varieties of discourse, including the visual and the oral.
