Abstract:

These lectures provide a basic introduction to the linguistic theory known as
Cognitive Grammar. It is argued that a conceptualist semantics, well motivated
in its own terms, provides the basis for a symbolic view of grammar.
Consisting in the structuring and symbolization of conceptual content, grammar
is inherently meaningful, and basic grammatical notions have conceptual
characterizations. An account is given of grammatical categories, markings,
and constructions. A number of central topics are examined in detail,
including subjects, possessives, locatives, voice, and impersonals.

This book has appeared as part of a new series with lectures from Eminent
Linguists on Cognitive Linguistics. For other volumes that have appeared or
