Contents:

Meaning and Cognition; Editorial page; Title page; LCC data; Table of contents; Chapter 1. Which semantics?; Chapter 2. Why mind is necessary: Conceptualization, grammar and linguistic semantics; Chapter 3. What is Montague semantics?; Chapter 4. Construal operations in linguistics and artificial intelligence; Chapter 5. Salience phenomena in the lexicon: A typology; Chapter 6. Prototypicality, typicality and context; Chapter 7.

Summary: The aim of this book is to present significant aspects of cognitive grammar by adopting an interdisciplinary approach. The book provides an interplay of contributions by some exponents of cognitive grammar (Langacker, Croft, Wood, Geeraerts, Kövecses, Wildgen), and philosophers of language (Albertazzi, Marconi, Peruzzi, Violi) who, in most cases, share a phenomenological and Gestalt approach to the problem of semantics. The topics covered include themes that are central to the debate in cognitive grammar, such as, metaphor, construal operations, prototypicality, Gestalt schemes and field semant.
