Language, Corpora and Cognition cover

This book focuses on matching theoretical predictions about language and cognition against empirical language data. The contributions use corpus linguistics methodology for their analysis. The contributors evaluate a variety of themes from combining syntax, semantics, discourse, terminology, to cognitive linguistics with the techniques and quantitative methods related to linguistic data processing.

«The edited volume brings together a variety of papers from diverse corpus linguistic methodologies on various aspects of cognitive science and cognitive linguistics. As the introduction states, it is a valuable contribution and step forward in the understanding of how the use of empirical data can inform theoretical predictions about the relationship between language and cognition.»
(Franka Kermer, Linguist List Dec. 2017)
