Amazon.ca: From Etymology to Pragmatics : Metaphorical and Cultural Aspects of Semantic Structure: Books: Eve ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30) Although such ambiguities cannot easily be accounted for by feature-analyses of word meaning, Eve Sweetser's argument shows that they can be analyzed both readily and systematically. Sweetser shows that both lexical polysemy and pragmatic ambiguity are shaped by our metaphorical folk understanding of epistemic processes and of speech interaction. Similar regularities can be shown to structure the contrast among root, epistemic and speech act uses of modal verbs, multiple uses of conjunctions and conditionals, and certain processes of historical change observed in Indo-European languages. www.amazon.ca /exec/obidos/ASIN/0521424429   (351 words)

ICLC 2001 Workshop Linguistic metaphorical mappings are paralleled systematically in gesture (Cienki[1998], Sweetser [1998]). The general motivation adduced for PAST IS IN FRONT OF EGO metaphorical systems is the KNOWING IS SEEING metaphor (Sweetser 1990), here grounded in the division of a visual scene into a visible and known area in front of EGO and a non-visible/unknown area behind EGO. Systems treating FUTURE as IN FRONT OF EGO, PAST as IN BACK are crosslinguistically the norm, and appear to reflect instead a basic experiential blend of motion along a linear path with a temporal sequence of visual experiences of locations passed through. markturner.org /ICLC7workshop.html   (2941 words)

From Etymology to Pragmatics - Cambridge University Press Although such ambiguities cannot easily be accounted for by feature-analyses of word meaning, Eve Sweetser's argument shows that they can be analysed both readily and systematically.

[No title] In the course, two main approaches to the study of language were introduced and contrasted: cognitive linguistics (represented by Raymond Gibbs and Eve Sweetser) and formal semantics (represented by Jan Tore Lønning and Helge Dyvik). During the course, these two areas could be seen as different in a number of ways. Eve Sweetser talked about how mental spaces theory can account for the meaning of metaphors and metonyms. www.pierregander.com /phd/courses/meaning_and_cognition/Meaning_and_cognition.html   (774 words)

Irene_Mittelberg Conceptual metaphor theory (Lakoff and Johnson, 1980, 1999; Lakoff, 1993; Sweetser, 1990) is based on the idea that abstract concepts are understood in terms of concrete concepts and that human conceptualization is grounded in physical and social experience. This effect is particularly striking when dealing with invisible subject matters, as Cienki (1998) demonstrates in his work on the moral concepts ‘honesty’ and ‘dishonesty’ and Sweetser (1998) in her work on the domain of ‘speech interaction’. The crucial difference between syntactic tree diagrams (generative syntactic theory) and linear conceptualizations of a sentence is that the former exploits an additional spatial dimension through a schematic downward branching structure alluding to family trees. www.utexas.edu /coc/cms/International_House_of_Gestures/Conferences/Proceedings/Contributions/Mittelberg/Mittelberg.html   (1692 words)

Sesquipedalian #1 Mental spaces and the grammar of conditionals Eve Sweetser Linguistics Dept, UC Berkeley Fauconnier (1985) has proposed that if-clauses be viewed as setting up a mental space, within which the content of the main clause applies. Sweetser (in press) argues that such a framework will allow us to predict the ways in which so-called counterfactual verb forms extend to further subordinate clauses (embedded conditionals, relative clauses). In this presentation, I will present a mental- space analysis of the semantics of a broader spectrum of conditional constructions, including speech-act conditionals such as (1), epistemic conditionals such as (2), and metalinguistic conditionals such as (3)-(4). www-linguistics.stanford.edu /Archives/Sesquipedalian/1994-95/msg00000.html   (6189 words)
