With a Foreword by Leonard Talmy
Volume Editor:
Cognitive semantics is an interdisciplinary approach to the study of meaning and mind. The Handbook of Cognitive Semantics is the first reference work in the field. Edited by Thomas Fuyin Li, with a detailed taxonomy of the field by Leonard Talmy, it provides an overview of the basic topics and recent developments. Since its origins, cognitive semantics has grown greatly in the range and depth of its research on conceptual structure in language. The Handbook shows that cognitive semantics has become a mature discipline that advances linguistic meaning to a central place in research on cognition. This is the fourth volume in a set of four. It contains the following parts: Part X: Force and Causation Part XI: Attention Part XII: The Targeting System of Language

Brill’s Handbooks in Linguistics series publishes comprehensive reference works on the language sciences. While works on all relevant fields are welcome, particular attention is paid to new and emerging fields, fields which do not yet have comprehensive reference works, and fields which do have such reference works but these are outdated. The series is currently being revamped, with several handbooks in the pipeline. Topics of upcoming volumes include Formosan Languages, Contrastive Pragmatics, and Cognitive Semantics.
With an Introduction by Leonard Talmy
Editor:
Since the late 20th century, cognitive linguistics has developed into one of the most dynamic approaches in theoretical linguistics. Several handbooks have been published on the subject, but until now no handbook has been dedicated to cognitive semantics. This is despite the fact that cognitive semantics – while an inseparable part of cognitive linguistics – has its own distinctive framework and features. To address the ever-growing interest in and audience for cognitive semantics, there is therefore a great need for a standard reference work on the topic, which the Handbook of Cognitive Semantics satisfies. In the handbook, leading researchers on cognitive semantics from around the world take the relationship between meaning and mind as the central concern. There are dedicated sections for basic concepts, theoretical models, methodology, model and schemas, space and event typology, causation, and attention.
This handbook is published in four volumes, as follows: Volume 1 (published April 2023)
Part I: Conceptual Semantics
Part II: Basic Issues
Vols. 2, 3, and 4 are forthcoming in October 2023.
Volume 2
Part III: Essential Concepts
Part IV: Semantic Categories
Part V: Methodology
Part VI: Models and Schemas
Volume 3
Part VII: Space and Time
Part VIII: Event Typology
Part IX: Meaning Construction
Volume 4
Part X: Force and Causation
Part XI: Attention
Part XII: The Targeting System of Language

English is rapidly becoming the world’s lingua franca, a truly international language. Language program leadership and curriculum is a central aspect of the teaching of English as a vibrant and rapidly growing area of education worldwide. Management and curriculum in English language teaching operates within a rapidly changing, global environment with multiple and diverse expectations and clientele that require innovative approaches as well as strong and diverse leadership skills.
The aim of the series is to develop books on innovative curriculum in English language teaching with a focus on leadership in this expanding field. Topics for the series include program management, curriculum design, faculty development, program and faculty evaluation, and leadership in the teaching of English worldwide. The primary audiences are language program administrators, teachers and professors, and postgraduate students pursuing Masters and/or Doctoral degrees in Applied Linguistics or the Teaching of English as a Second/Foreign Language. Additional possible readers are educational administrators and those working in language education in primary or secondary schools. Titles in the series may be of interest as well to those working in language areas other than English, i.e. foreign language program administrators, teachers, and postgraduate students.
