Cognitive Linguistics, a dynamic field of contemporary linguistics, seeks to align our understanding of language with insights from the mind and brain. This volume explores classic topics within Cognitive Linguistics, including the semantics of specific words, polysemy, synonymy, and the semantic characteristics of syntactic patterns. It also delves into the analysis of causatives, transitivity, and image-schematic aspects of posture verbs. A key feature of this work is its methodological reliance on Corpus Linguistics, which utilizes computerized analysis of language in authentic contexts. The contributions not only offer new insights but also present fresh data and innovative corpus-based, quantitative methods of analysis. Authors discuss theoretical implications that extend beyond individual studies, demonstrating how Cognitive Linguistics can benefit from rigorous analyses of naturally occurring language. The languages examined include English, German, Dutch, and Russian, drawing from diverse corpora. This volume will engage a broad audience of scholars with varied interests and aims to further integrate usage-based analytical techniques within this vibrant paradigm.
