Providing an engaging, accessible and practically-focused
introduction to cognitive grammar, this book demonstrates how
central cognitive grammar principles can be used in stylistic
analyses. Assuming no prior knowledge, it leads students through
the basics of cognitive grammar, outlining its place within the
field of cognitive linguistics as a whole, providing clear
explanations of key principles and concepts, and explaining how
these can be used to support the study of a range of literary and
non-literary texts. Thoroughly updated throughout to encompass
emerging trends in the field, this second edition features: -
Increased exploration of a range of topics, including specificity
and definiteness, scanning, perfective and imperfective verbs,
action chains, and subjective and objective construal - A brand new
chapter on extended projects in cognitive grammar - Additional
activities, including on a wider range of literary texts - Further
solutions to modelled answers - Updated examples, references, and
further reading recommendations Presenting cognitive grammar as a
powerful alternative to more traditional grammatical models to
enable the analysis of texts, the book’s primary focus is on the
practical application of cognitive grammar to examples of language
in context and on its potential for specifically literary and
non-literary material. It offers a clear and facilitating approach
to allow students to describe language features carefully and to
explore how these descriptions can be developed into full and rich
analyses.
