Among the cognitive processes involved in the construction of any kind of meaning, attention is fundamental in determining why, how and what we mean. Attention plays a primary role in the process of learning the meanings of words and more generally of acquiring knowledge; signification, discourse and persuasion; perceiving, representing and (re)framing reality; shaping the attitudes of the audience; conveying values and ideologies. Conversely, the meanings of words and more generally, of signs, convey the condensed instructions for the attentional operations one has to perform in order to consciously experience what is expressed through and by them. Language, by addressing and guiding attention in specific ways, helps to select, amplify and support certain semantic components and concepts, and construct and communicate knowledge and values. This book is the first to present a comprehensive overview of the extant research on the relationships between attention and meaning. The contributions collected here offer an overview of the most prominent theories and models developed so far that aim to explain how attention determines meaning construction. This book will be of interest to students, researchers and teachers in the realm of linguistics, semantics, discourse studies, semiotics, psycholinguistics, computational linguistics, linguistic development, cognitive architectures of language, neuropsychology of linguistic function and social psychology.

La Societa Tipografica Editoriale Porta di Piacenza diede alle stampe negli anni Venti del secolo scorso una serie di volumetti, singoli o doppi, che tracciavano i profili degli "Artefici della Vittoria", con l'intento dichiarato nell'epigrafe di "consegnare stabilmente alla storia e alla gloria la grande aristocrazia della vittoriosa guerra d'Italia". La raccolta, ideata e curata da Mario Carli, arricchita da fregi ornamentali di Guido Marussig e pubblicata "sotto gli auspici delle autorita statali e col favore nazionale", si avvalse della collaborazione di importanti personaggi dell'epoca. Questa e la riedizione di uno di quei volumetti, quello che traccia il profilo di Enrico Corradini.

In this book, the author provides a brief introduction to a completely new theory in semantics, Operational Semantics (OS), which concerns the meanings of the basic linguistic elements that are indispensable for any linguistic expression, that is, mainly the 'grammatical' words and, in the large number of languages that have a more or less rich morphology, almost all morphemes. OS differs significantly from other existing theories.
