Description: On Ancient Grammars of Space : Linguistic Research on the Expression of Spatial Relations and Motion in Ancient Languages, Hardcover by Kutscher, Silvia (EDT); Werning, Daniel A. (EDT), ISBN 3110311178, ISBN-13 9783110311174, Brand New, Free shipping in the US This volume addresses questions about the relationship between language and other cognitive ability by examining the linguistic codification of spatial relations, which in most cases is not concentrated in a simple component of linguistic expression, but distributed across a series of clausal elements, each of which denotes only one aspect of the spatial situation being described. The phenomenon is explored in ancient languages of the Mediterranean: Hittite, Greek, Akkadian, and Egyptian and other others. Three studies are in English, and three in German.
