Writing Systems and Cognition - Perspectives from Psychology, Physiology, Linguistics, and Semiotics (Paperback, Softcover... Writing Systems and Cognition - Perspectives from Psychology, Physiology, Linguistics, and Semiotics (Paperback, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1994)
William C. Watt
R5,910 Discovery Miles 59 100 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

In this distinguished collection the deeper cognitive aspects of writing systems are for the first time added to the perceptual and physiological dimensions and brought into a coherent whole. The result is a multifaceted understanding of alphabets and other scripts in which none of the major factors that shape those systems, and thus distinctively reveal attributes of the human mind, are slighted. The systems through which language is realized on the page are compared in nature and complexity with those through which language is realized as sound, and are seen in their true perspective. Long the object of intensive inquiry, the process of change in phonological systems is now joined to the evolution of graphological systems, and new light is cast on the nature of the relevant human cognitive processes in their diversity and underlying unity. The authors, each eminently qualified in his or her field, are drawn from Europe, Asia, and North and South America.
