The present volume contains a selection of papers presented at the
conference Cognitive Approaches to English, an international event
organized to mark the 30th anniversary of English studies at the
Faculty of Philosophy, Josip Juraj Strossmayer University, Osijek,
which was held in Osijek on October 18-19, 2007. The participants
were invited to discuss issues in cognitive accounts of English,
ranging from fundamental to methodological to interdisciplinary and
applied. The volume is accordingly divided into four parts. Part I,
Motivation in grammar, deals with various phenomena in the grammar
of English in the broadest sense of the term, all of which are
shown to be motivated by metaphorical and/or metonymic operations.
Part II, Constructing meaning (between grammar and lexicon),
contains five chapters dealing with phenomena ranging from various
peculiarities of form-meaning pairings (such as synonymy, polysemy,
and figurative meanings) to concept formation. The four chapters
that make up Part III are concerned with the phenomenon of
interlinguistic and intercultural variation in the use of
metaphorical and metonymic processes. The volume is concluded by
Part IV, the three papers of which attempt to reconsider some TEFL
issues from a cognitive linguistic point of view.
