Abstract:

This book presents a contrastive analysis of the lexicalization of motion
events in Polish in comparison with Russian. The study, set in the framework
of Cognitive Linguistics, adopts a usage-based approach to language analysis.
Consequently, it draws on data derived from a wide variety of sources, namely
modern novels, translated texts and elicitation tasks. Besides describing the
distribution of path and manner information in and outside the verb in the two
languages, the book addresses questions concerning the place of Polish and
Russian on the continuum of the salience of the manner of motion as well as
cognitive mechanisms reflected in the lexicalization patterns of motion
events.
