Abstract:

This volume represents the first time that researchers on signed
language and gesture have come together with a coherent focus under
the framework of cognitive linguistics. The pioneering work of Sherman
Wilcox is highlighted throughout, scaffolding much of the research of
these contributors. The five sections of the volume reflect critical
areas of Dr. Wilcox’s own research in cognitive linguistics: Guiding
research principles in signed language, gesture, and cognitive
linguistics; iconicity across signed and spoken linguistics;
multimodality; blending, depiction and metaphor in signed languages;
and specific grammatical constructions as form-meaning pairings. The
authors of this volume exemplify and continue Dr. Wilcox’s work of
bridging signed and spoken language disciplines by contributing
chapters that represent a multiplicity of perspectives on signed,
spoken, and gesture data. This volume presents a unified collection of
cognitive linguistics research by leading authors that will be of
interest to readers in the fields of signed and spoken language
linguistics, gesture studies, and general linguistics.
