Cognitive linguistics / William Croft
Titre : Cognitive linguistics Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : William Croft ; D. A. Cruse Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2004 Importance : xv, 356 p. Présentation : ill. Format : 24 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-521-66114-0 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 421 Résumé : Cognitive Linguistics argues that language is governed by general cognitive principles, rather than by a special-purpose language module. This introductory textbook surveys the field of cognitive linguistics as a distinct area of study, presenting its theoretical foundations and the arguments supporting it. Clearly organised and accessibly written, it provides a useful introduction to the relationship between language and cognitive processing in the human brain. It covers the main topics likely to be encountered in a course or seminar, and provides a synthesis of study and research in this fast-growing field of linguistics. The authors begin by explaining the conceptual structures and cognitive processes governing linguistic representation and behaviour, and go on to explore cognitive approaches to lexical semantics, as well as syntactic representation and analysis, focusing on the closely related frameworks of cognitive grammar and construction grammar. This much-needed introduction will be welcomed by students in linguistics and cognitive science. Cognitive linguistics [texte imprimé] / William Croft ; D. A.

Titre : Radical construction grammar : syntactic theory in typological perspective / Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : William Croft Editeur : Oxford : Oxford University Press Année de publication : 2001 Importance : xxvii, 416 p. Présentation : ill. Format : 24 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-19-829954-7 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 415 Résumé : Radical Construction Grammar presents a profound critique of syntactic theory and argumentation, and offers a genuinely new approach to syntax based on the fact of grammatical diversity. Recent syntactic theories are essentially formal models for the representation of grammatical knowledge and posit complex syntactic structures in the analysis of sentences. The result has been a endless cycle of new and revised theories of syntactic representation. Radical Construction Grammar argues that this approach to syntax is incompatible with the grammatical variation found within and across languages. This book defends three fundamental theses: (i) constructions are the primitive units of syntactic representation, and grammatical categories are defined by constructions, not the other way around; (ii) the only syntactic structures are the part-whole relations between a construction and the syntactic elements that make it up; (iii) not only are grammatical categories construction-specific, but constructions are language-specific. In other words, syntactic structure is almost entirely language-specific; attempts to find a universal formal model are doomed to failure. Radical Construction Grammar integrates concepts from typological theory and construction grammar to uncover the genuine universals of grammar. Constructions are represented as complex symbolic units pairing form and meaning. The semantic map model of typological theory is used to map category distributions on a largely universal conceptual space. Universals of grammar are found in the mapping of meaning onto form. Systematic patterns of grammatical variation provide evidence for the topography of conceptual space, which in turn reflects the geography of the human mind.

Titre : Typology and universals Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : William Croft, Auteur Mention d'édition : Second Edition Editeur : Cambridge : university press Année de publication : 2003 Importance : 341 P. Format : 23*15 cm. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-521-00499-2 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Typology language syntactic structure Index. décimale : 421 Résumé : Comparison of the grammars of human languages reveals systematic patterns of variation. Typology and universals research uncovers those patterns to formulate universal constraints on language and seek their exploration. In this essential textbook, William Croft presents a comprehensive introduction to the method and theory used in studying typology and universals. The theoretical issues discussed range from the most fundamental to the most abstract. The book provides students and researchers with extensive examples of language universals in phonology, morphology, syntax and semantics. This second edition has been thoroughly rewritten and updated to reflect advances in typology and universals in the past decade, including: new methodologies such as the semantic map model and questions of syntactic argumentation; discussion of current debates over deeper explanations for specific classes of universals; and comparison of the typological and generative approaches to language.
