METAPHORICAL CONCEPTUALIZATIONS GEBUNDEN

The book deals with the important shift that has been heralded in cognitive linguistics from
mere universal matters to cultural and situational variation. The discussions examine cognitive
and cultural linguistics' theories in relation to the following areas of research: (i)
metaphorical conceptualization  (ii) the influence of culture on metaphor  metonymy and
conceptual blends  (iii) the impact of culture and cognition on metaphorical lexis  (iv) the
interface of pragmatics and cognition when metaphor is studied in situ  that is  in
face-to-face as well as in virtual multimodal interaction  (v) the application of insights from
metaphorical conceptualizations to language teaching  and (vi) recent methods for revealing
(inter)cultural metaphorical conceptualizations (corpus-based approaches  gesture studies 
etc.). The book brings together cognitive  functional  and (inter)cultural approaches.
