Cognitive Semiotics : Signs, Mind, and Meaning, Paperback / softback Book

Cognitive Semiotics : Signs, Mind, and Meaning Paperback / softback

Part of the Bloomsbury Advances in Semiotics series

Paperback / softback

Description

Interrogating the relatively new field of cognitive semiotics, this book explores shared issues in cognitive science and semiotics.

Building on research from recent decades, Per Aage Brandt investigates the potential of a cognitive semiotic approach to enhance our understanding of language, thought and semiosis in general. Introducing a critical, non-standard approach both to cognitive science and to semiotics, this book discusses the understanding of meaning and mind through four major dimensions; mental architecture, mental spaces, discourse coherence and eco-organization.

Encompassing a rich variety of topics and debates, Cognitive Semiotics outlines several bridges between 'continental' and 'analytic' thinking in the study of semantics, pragmatics, discourse and the philosophy of language and mind.
