This book implements a multidisciplinary approach in describing
language both in its ontogenetic development and in its close
interrelationship with other human subsystems such as thought,
memory, and activity, with a focus on the semantic component of the
evolutionary-synthetic theory.The volume analyzes, among others,
the mechanisms for grammatical polysemy, and brings to light the
structural unity of artefact and natural concepts (such as CHAIR,
ROAD, LAKE, RIVER, TREE). Additionally, object and motor concepts
are defined in terms of the language of thought, and their
representation in neurobiological memory codes is discussed;
finally, the hierarchic structure of basic meanings of concrete
nouns is shown to arise as a result of their step-by-step
development in ontogeny.
