Qualifying conceptualizations

Boekbijdrage - Hoofdstuk

This chapter deals with how humans anchor newly acquired information in their long-term knowledge of the world, by qualifying it along a range of dimensions, including aspect, time, and types of modality. It shows how these dimensions are organized in a hierarchical system, it explores the basic cognitive principles underlying this organization, and it discusses how this system plays a critical role in the process of (inter)subjectification, as a major mechanism of diachronic semantic change.
