Relevance Studies in Poland essays on language and communication. Volume 4 - PDF

Kolejny tom z serii Relevance Studies in Poland zawiera artykuły, w których autorzy podejmują tematy z dziedziny pragmatyki kognitywnej. Proponują rozwiązania problemów teoretycznych dotyczących pojęć umysłowych, struktury informacji, komunikacji słabej oraz relacji pomiędzy emocjami, komunikacją i przetwarzaniem informacji. Przedstawiają również możliwości zastosowania Teorii Relewancji do badania takich zagadnień, jak ewolucja języka, psychoterapia, rozwój pojęć u osób niewidomych, a także przekład tekstów naukowych.

********

The chapters included in this book adopt a relevance-theoretic perspective to discuss various topics falling within the domain of cognitive pragmatics. Some authors address important issues at the heart of Relevance Theory itself, such as the core mechanisms of communication and cognition and their relationships to emotions and linguistic form, whereas others attempt to push the existing boundaries of the theory, taking its insights into more uncharted territory, such as human evolution, psychotherapy, the study of the blind, and even the Polish language.

Keywords: cognitive pragmatics, relevance theory, mechanisms of communication, mechanisms of cognition, emotions, linguistic form, human evolution, psychotherapy, study of the blind, Polish language.
