Agentive Cognitive Construction Grammar: Mind, Agency and the Materiality of Language (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Agentive Cognitive Construction Grammar (AgCCxG) redefines language as an adaptive, embodied semiotic system shaped by cognition, interaction, and prediction. Rooted in Peircean semiotics and Active Inference, it sees speakers as agent-interpretants adjusting semiotic representations based on need-driven processes rather than rigid hierarchies. Rejecting dualism, AgCCxG highlights the interplay between semiotic agency, embodied cognition, and adaptive mechanisms, emphasizing the triadic nature of signsicons, indices, and symbolsas key to meaning-making. By framing language as an evolving system of cognitive adjustment, it underscores the deep integration of linguistic structures with sensorimotor processes, showing that language is not a static symbolic code but a dynamic tool for constructing the world.

Autorenporträt

Sergio TorresMartínez is professor of cognitive linguistics, semiotics and translation semiotics. Among his main interests are Agentive Cognitive Construction Grammar, Cognitive Semantics, embodiment theory, phenomenology, Wittgenstein's philosophy of language, Peircean semiotics and the cognitive applications of construction grammar (Applied Cognitive Construction Grammar). Current research projects include the conceptualization of construction grammar as an interdisciplinary field of endeavor connecting embodiment theory, neuroscience semiotics and philosophy for the construction of a comprehensive and systematic description of constructional attachment patterns across languages. Central to this research is the need to provide linguistics with a model of the mind that complements linguistic description.
