Abstract:

This lively lecture series by a leading expert introduces the theory, practice
and application of a versatile, rigorous and well-developed approach to
cross-linguistic semantics: the NSM approach originated by Anna Wierzbicka.
Topics include: history and philosophy of the study of meaning, semantic
primes and molecules, emotions, evaluation, verbs and event structure,
cultural key words and scripts. Case studies come from English, Chinese,
Danish, and other languages. Applications in language teaching and
intercultural education are also covered, along with comparisons between NSM
and other leading approaches to linguistic semantics. The book will appeal to
students and scholars of linguistics at all levels, communication and
translation scholars, and anyone interested in a systematic and non
Anglocentric approach to meaning, culture and cognition.
