About this product

Product Information

This volume looks at spatialization of abstract concepts in verbo-pictorial aphorisms at work in the cartoons of a single artist. While extensive work has been done in studying spatialization of abstract concepts in grammar and lexicon within cognitive linguistics, this book is the first of its kind to provide a detailed account of such phenomena in multimodal discourse. The volume integrates a range of approaches from cognitive linguistics, including image schema theory, conceptual theory of metaphor, multimodal metaphor theory, the dynamic approach to metaphor, and a multimodal approach to metonymy, and applies this multi-faceted framework to a selection of cartoons from the work of Polish artist Janusz Kapusta. Taken together, these cartoons form the basis of two comprehensive case studies which explore the abstract concepts of emotions and life, highlighting the ways in which cartoons can illustrate the important relationship between space, situated cognition, and language and in turn, a clear and systematic framework for establishing cohesive ties between the verbal and pictorial modes in multimodal cognitive linguistic research. The volume sheds new light on visual thinking and multimodal rendition of creative abstract thought.

    Book is brand new and in excellent condition but NOT what I ordered or what is stated in the advert! (Please see attached photos. Book was posted and received promptly, but the book I ordered states clearly it’s the ‘Hardback’ edition. What I got was the paperback edition. I ordered a hardback copy for a reason feel and like I’ve been deceived (how many others I wonder?). Misleading advertising or genuine mistake? On this occasion I’ll give ‘bookwanderers’ the benefit of doubt.

    Initially there was an issue with my purchase because of an error of my home address & my books went to a different address🤦🏻‍♂️. After contacting the team @ bookwanderers they informed me they were going to send me the books I ordered to my actual address although they were NOT at fault in any of this! I can’t express my gratitude enough & these books are exactly what I expected! Thank you sooo much bookwanderers. I will tell many about your store & my great result with you. Thanks again
