The book contains a selection of papers from the conference The
Verb in Cognitive Linguistics, held at Gran, Norway in June, 1998.
The papers in this book are all written within a cognitive
linguistics framework, concentrated around different linguistic
aspects of the verb. The two keynote papers (by Richard A. Hudson
and Ronald W. Langacker) serve as an introduction to this main
theme, providing a broad perspective and a general, theoretical
background from word grammar and cognitive grammar, respectively.
The remaining ten papers are more closely aiming at addressing
morphological, syntactic and semantic aspects of the verb,
illustrated through a variety of languages and research areas,
including, i.a., adult language processing, language acquisition,
connectionist modelling, and typology. A majority of the papers
describe different aspects of Norwegian - a language not earlier
investigated at such a scale within cognitive linguistics.
Norwegian offers valuable contributions through being closely
related to English, yet differing in certain important and
interesting ways. In addition, data from several other languages
are included, among others Italian, Russian, and different African
languages, providing a wider typological range.
