Abstract:

Editor’s Note: This is a new edition of a previously announced book.

Only 15 years ago bilingualism was somewhat outside the main debates in
cognitive linguistics. Cognitive linguistics had, to a large extent, taken for
granted the fact that language is embodied in our experience. However, not
much attention was given to questions of whether any changes to our language
repertoire alter the way we perceive the world around us. A growing body of
recent research suggests that one cannot understand the cognitive foundations
of language without looking at bi- and multilingual speakers. In this vein,
the present book aims to contribute to the existing debate of the relationship
between language, culture and cognition by assessing differences and
similarities between monolingual and bilingual language acquisition and
Cognitive Perspectives on Bilingualismuse. In particular, it investigates the
effect of conceptual-semantic and pragmatic properties of constructions on
code choice and code switching, as well as the impact of bilingual and
bicultural education on speakers’ cognitive development. This collective
volume systematises, reviews, and promotes a range of theoretical perspectives
and research techniques that currently inform work across the disciplines of
bilingualism and code switching.
