Cognitive linguistics provides tools to discuss identity as a
process. Identity depends on the underlying conceptualisation of
the present, while innovation and creation are borderline phenomena
in epistemology. The two may be seen as generalised accounts of
causation as a process: open-ended and closed, where time is
conceptualised as real or figurative. Aristotle's epistemology
builds on the conceptualisation of a subject manipulating objects
in the visual field. Saint Augustine and Plotinus conceive of time
and identity as real and contingent or figurative and necessary.
William of Ockham builds on a simple conceptualisation of a
time-point matrix as opposed to a duration matrix. British National
Corpus findings relate to and comment on these expert philosophical
conversations through the medium of cognitive models of
"innovation" and "creation", instruments of thought and reason in
English.
