Semantics and Cognition
Gilles Fauconnier is a linguist and cognitive scientist internationally known for his work on the theory of Mental Spaces and on the theory of Conceptual Integration or “Blending”, in partnership with Mark Turner. His contribution to Cognitive Semantics in particular and Semantic Theory in general is invaluable. The theory of mental spaces allows refined treatment to a series of semantic phenomena that have always challenged semanticists such as …
Rethinking Metaphor
Compression and global insight
Compression is a phenomenon in conceptual integration that allows human beings simultaneously to control long diffuse chains of logical reasoning and to grasp the global meanings of such chains. Compression operates on a small set (under twenty) of relations rooted in fundamental human neurobiology as it applies to shared physical and socio-cultural human experience. So-called Vital Relations, including Cause-Effect, Change, Time, Identity, Inten…
Metonymy and Conceptual Integration
Conceptual Integration Networks
Conceptual integration—“blending”—is a general cognitive operation on a par with analogy, recursion, mental modeling, conceptual categorization, and framing. It serves a variety of cognitive purposes. It is dynamic, supple, and active in the moment of thinking. It yields products that frequently become entrenched in conceptual structure and grammar, and it often performs new work on its previously entrenched products as inputs. Blending is easy t…
Mappings in Thought and Language
Meaning in everyday thought and language is constructed at lightning speed. We are not conscious of the staggering complexity of the cognitive operations that drive our simplest behavior. This 1997 book examines a central component of meaning construction: the mappings that link mental spaces. A deep result of the research is that the same principles operate at the highest levels of scientific, artistic, and literary thought, and at the lower lev…
Conceptual Integration and Formal Expression
We pursue our exploration of conceptual blending and of the "many-space" model, which replaces the standard "two-domain" model. In blending, structure from two or more input mental spaces is projected to a separate "blended" space, which inherits partial structure from the inputs and has emergent structure of its own. New examples are presented. We show that meaning is not compositional in the usual sense and that blending operates to produce und…
Mental Spaces
Mental Spaces is the classic introduction to the study of mental spaces and conceptual projection, as revealed through the structure and use of language. It examines in detail the dynamic construction of connected domains as discourse unfolds. The discovery of mental space organization has modified our conception of language and thought: powerful and uniform accounts of superficially disparate phenomena have become available in the areas of refer…
The story of Willie Horton and his daughter Gennifer
The wrong phrase in the wrong place
Motion Mappings
Because of the attention given to overt language structure at the expense of associated cognitive constructions, the importance of domain mappings in theories of meaning and language has too often been overlooked. This paper gives a brief outline of the general issues, and studies one intriguing example in more depth: how we talk and think about the cultural notion of schedule in terms of a motion schema with moving points on imaginary scales. At…

Comment contrôler la vérité - Remarques illustrées par des assertions dangereuses et pernicieuses en tout genre
Wie man Wahrheit kontrolliert. Die Tendenz, ein Untersuchungsfeld und die Probleme innerhalb desselben autonom zu setzen, ist in der strukturalen (klassischen und generativen) Linguistik und in der analytischen Philosophie besonders stark. Diese Autonomisierung des Untersuchungsgegenstandes ist manchmal wegen der operationalisierenden Idealisierungen, die sie erlaubt, sehr fruchtbar ; aber allzu oft zwingt sie einen willkiirlichen und engen Rahme…

Cyclic Attraction into Networks of Coreference
Neither classical transformations nor global rules can account satisfactorily for the interaction of Quantifier Movement, Agreement, and Pronominalization in French. It is argued that an adequate treatment involves rules that enlarge networks of coreference in the course of syntactic derivations. Linguistic analogs of logical variables must be present at late stages of a derivation, giving rise to an interesting interplay between logic and syntax…
