Abstract:

Since its foundation in the 1980's, Construction Grammar has been crossing the
traditionally imposed borders. From superimposed levels of analysis to the
lexicon-grammar continuum, the constructionist approach to language has been
built by, quoting Charles Fillmore, "the insistence on seeing specific
grammatical patterns as serving given semantic (and often pragmatic) purposes,
and in the effort to construct a uniform theory capable of presenting both the
simplest and most general aspects of language and the large world of complex
grammatical structures". In this volume, five chapters derived from the
plenary talks at the 9th International Conference on Construction Grammar
provide a sample of the bridges the insistence and effort of construction
grammarians have built in the past three decades with other analytical models
– namely Cognitive Grammar and Collostructional Analysis –, perspectives –
Diachronic Construction Grammar – and applications – Language Pedagogy and
Natural Language Understanding.
