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