Abstract:

The first substantial publication on cognitive onomastics was published as
late as 1990. As progress has been slow ever since, cognitive onomastics is
still an emerging discipline today. In the past quarter century the
cognitive-onomastics enterprise has, however, provided insights into the
nature of proper names (hereafter “names”) that deserve consideration from
linguists of all schools of thought. An international team of cognitive
onomasticians present principal methods and findings of cognitive onomastics
in the present reader. It includes papers on the relationship between
onomastics and cognitive science, on the nature of names (general aspects,
identity), on the grammatical description of names, semantics of names
(general aspects, metaphor, culture-specificness), and on names in literature
(general aspects, names in translation). As names are regarded as the
touchstone of linguistic theories, this book will prove indispensable to all
scholars interested in language.
