论文选刊 | Combinance in the Evolution of Language

Talmy, Leonard. 2018. Combinance in the evolution of language: Overcoming limitations. Cognitive Semantics, 4(2): 135-183.

Leonard Talmy is Professor Emeritus of Linguistics at the University at Buffalo, State University of New York, where he taught for 15 years and was Director of the Center for Cognitive Science for 14 years. He is now also a Visiting Scholar at the University of California, Berkeley, where he had received his Ph.D. in Linguistics.

His broader research interests cover cognitive linguistics, the properties of conceptual organization, and cognitive theory. His more specific interests within linguistics center on natural-language semantics, including: typologies and universals of semantic structure; the relationship between semantic structure and formal linguistic structures -- lexical, morphological, and syntactic; and the relation of this material to diachrony, discourse, development, impairment, culture, and evolution. Additional specializations are in American Indian and Yiddish linguistics.

He is the author of a 2018 book with MIT Press, The Targeting System of Language. He is also the author of a two-volume set with MIT Press (2000): Toward a Cognitive Semantics, volume 1: Concept Structuring Systems, volume 2: Typology and Process in Concept Structuring.
