Abstract:

The volume presents sixteen chapters focused on lexicalization patterns used
in color naming in a variety of languages. Although previous studies have
dealt with categorization and perceptual salience of color terms, few studies
have been consistently conducted in order to investigate phonological,
morphological, syntactic, and semantic devices languages use to form color
terms.

The aim of this volume is to approach color data from a relativist and
typological perspective and to address some novel viewpoints in the research
of color terms, such as: (a) the focus on language structure per se in the
study of lexicalization data; (b) investigation of inter- and intra-language
structural variation; (c) culture and language contact as reflected in
language structure.

Topics of this book have a broad appeal to researchers working in the fields
of linguistics, anthropology, sociology, and psychology.
