This volume is a collection of original contributions from
outstanding scholars in linguistics, philosophy and computational
linguistics exploring the relation between word meaning and human
linguistic creativity. The papers present different aspects
surrounding the question of what is word meaning, a problem that
has been the centre of heated debate in all those disciplines that
directly or indirectly are concerned with the study of language and
of human cognition. The discussions are centred around a view of
the mental lexicon, as outlined in the Generative Lexicon theory
(Pustejovsky, 1995), which proposes a unified model for defining
word meaning. The individual contributors present their evidence
for a generative approach as well as critical perspectives, which
provides for a volume where word meaning is not viewed only from a
particular angle or from a particular concern, but from a wide
variety of topics, each introduced and explained by the editors.
