Langacker, a founder of Cognitive Linguistics. The goal of the book is to promote two kinds of dialogue. First, dialogue between Cognitive Grammar and the particular sign-based approach to language known as the Columbia School. While they share certain basic assumptions, the “maximalist” CG and the “minimalist” CS differ both theoretically and methodologically. Given that philosophers from Mill to Kuhn to Feyerabend have stressed the importance to any discipline of dialogue between opposing views, the dialogue begun here cannot fail to bear fruit. The second kind of dialogue is that among several sign-based approaches themselves and also between them and two competitors: grammaticalization theory and generic functionalism. Topics range from phonology to discourse. Analytical problems are taken from a wide range of languages including English, German, Guarani, Hebrew, Hualapai, Japanese, Korean, Macedonian, Mandarin, Polish, Russian, Serbian, Spanish, Urdu, and Yaqui. 05 [...] this work represents a valuable and up-to-date contribution to linguistic analysis, especially grammatical, and constitutes a thought-provoking basis for further studies on the field. Asunción Villamil Touriño, Escuela Oficial de Idiomas de Cuenca, Spain, on Linguist List, Vol.16.1588 (2005) 05 The question whether grammar is meaningful arguably defines one of the most fundamental divisive issues in linguistics since the nineteen sixties. The contributors to this volume are on the same side of the line; they belong to two major traditions (Columbia School 'sign-based' linguistics, and Cognitive Grammar) that have been advocating the meaningful-position for a number of decades now, each in its own way. Still, sharing such a basic commitment does not exhaust the possibilities for disagreement and debate, as this volume clearly shows — one may agree on the importance of meaning for grammar, but in itself this does not decide how meaning is to be conceived of. To mention only a few issues: Are there universal components of meaning, or are all symbolic relations entirely language dependent? Are morphemes the only bearers of meaning, or can abstract, schematic constructions also have meaning? Do signs in principle have single meanings, or is polysemy the 'natural' state for linguistic meaning? On the other hand, the present collection also shows that the commitment to meaning does constitute a sufficient framework for fruitful criticism and exchange. Questions like the ones just mentioned are important for any student of grammatical meaning. The search for answers can only benefit from open minded discussions between adherents of different views sharing the same ultimate interest, and from exchanging careful analyses of actual linguistic phenomena, undertaken from these views. This volume provides ample opportunity for any linguist seriously interested in grammatical meaning, to sharpen, and perhaps even adapt, their views by confronting them with the studies presented here. Arie Verhagen, Leiden University 05 Contini-Morava, Kirsner, and Rodríguez-Bachiller have gathered together a rich collection of thought-provoking papers, inviting readers to consider two complementary perspectives on the relationship between linguistic structure and 'meaning', Cognitive Linguistics and Columbia School Linguistics. The papers, some taking one 'side' or the other, some more neutral, present a range of carefully argued language-specific analyses, which highlight the various semantic, semiotic, and communicative issues raised by these two approaches. Although the three editors have been strongly influenced by Columbia School thought (with Contini-Morava and Kirsner both having received their doctorates from Columbia), readers need not be partial to either approach to appreciate and enjoy the theoretical and analytic concerns raised in this book. Sandra A. Thompson, University of California, Santa Barbara 05 Linguists interested in sign-approaches to language will welcome and enjoy this book because of its open and revealing debate on fundamental theoretical and methodological grammatical principles from different points of view. Ron Langacker's penetrating discussion of the various similarities and divergences of Cognitive Grammar and the Columbia School is highly insightful. Of all the other fine chapters, I most admire Joseph Davis' chapter taking issue with the theoretical construct of the communicative strategy in explaining messages. Prof. Theo Janssen, Free University Amsterdam 05 <i>Cognitive and Communicative Approaches to Linguistic Analysis</i> is a valuable resource for all linguists interested in the role of meaning in language and the integration of disparate theoretical perspectives. This volume explores the possible points of contact between Cognitive Linguistics and the Columbia School. Joined by a commitment to the form-meaning (aka "signal-meaning" within the Columbia School) relationship, Cognitive Linguistics and the Columbia School are opposed according to the articulation of that relationship. Whereas the Columbia School rigorously distills an abstract unitary meaning for a given signal, Cognitive Linguistics pursues the complex structures of polysemy in an unrestrained fashion, and each provides a distinct angle on the truths of language that no single framework can fully account for on its own. The authors give evidence that linguists can communicate substantively and effectively across the theoretical rifts that too often divide us. Laura A.

Langacker, a founder of Cognitive Linguistics. The goal of the book is to promote two kinds of dialogue. First, dialogue between Cognitive Grammar and the particular sign-based approach to language known as the Columbia School. While they share certain basic assumptions, the “maximalist” CG and the “minimalist” CS differ both theoretically and methodologically. Given that philosophers from Mill to Kuhn to Feyerabend have stressed the importance to any discipline of dialogue between opposing views, the dialogue begun here cannot fail to bear fruit. The second kind of dialogue is that among several sign-based approaches themselves and also between them and two competitors: grammaticalization theory and generic functionalism. Topics range from phonology to discourse. Analytical problems are taken from a wide range of languages including English, German, Guarani, Hebrew, Hualapai, Japanese, Korean, Macedonian, Mandarin, Polish, Russian, Serbian, Spanish, Urdu, and Yaqui. 05 [...] this work represents a valuable and up-to-date contribution to linguistic analysis, especially grammatical, and constitutes a thought-provoking basis for further studies on the field. Asunción Villamil Touriño, Escuela Oficial de Idiomas de Cuenca, Spain, on Linguist List, Vol.16.1588 (2005) 05 The question whether grammar is meaningful arguably defines one of the most fundamental divisive issues in linguistics since the nineteen sixties. The contributors to this volume are on the same side of the line; they belong to two major traditions (Columbia School 'sign-based' linguistics, and Cognitive Grammar) that have been advocating the meaningful-position for a number of decades now, each in its own way. Still, sharing such a basic commitment does not exhaust the possibilities for disagreement and debate, as this volume clearly shows — one may agree on the importance of meaning for grammar, but in itself this does not decide how meaning is to be conceived of. To mention only a few issues: Are there universal components of meaning, or are all symbolic relations entirely language dependent? Are morphemes the only bearers of meaning, or can abstract, schematic constructions also have meaning? Do signs in principle have single meanings, or is polysemy the 'natural' state for linguistic meaning? On the other hand, the present collection also shows that the commitment to meaning does constitute a sufficient framework for fruitful criticism and exchange. Questions like the ones just mentioned are important for any student of grammatical meaning. The search for answers can only benefit from open minded discussions between adherents of different views sharing the same ultimate interest, and from exchanging careful analyses of actual linguistic phenomena, undertaken from these views. This volume provides ample opportunity for any linguist seriously interested in grammatical meaning, to sharpen, and perhaps even adapt, their views by confronting them with the studies presented here. Arie Verhagen, Leiden University 05 Contini-Morava, Kirsner, and Rodríguez-Bachiller have gathered together a rich collection of thought-provoking papers, inviting readers to consider two complementary perspectives on the relationship between linguistic structure and 'meaning', Cognitive Linguistics and Columbia School Linguistics. The papers, some taking one 'side' or the other, some more neutral, present a range of carefully argued language-specific analyses, which highlight the various semantic, semiotic, and communicative issues raised by these two approaches. Although the three editors have been strongly influenced by Columbia School thought (with Contini-Morava and Kirsner both having received their doctorates from Columbia), readers need not be partial to either approach to appreciate and enjoy the theoretical and analytic concerns raised in this book. Sandra A. Thompson, University of California, Santa Barbara 05 Linguists interested in sign-approaches to language will welcome and enjoy this book because of its open and revealing debate on fundamental theoretical and methodological grammatical principles from different points of view. Ron Langacker's penetrating discussion of the various similarities and divergences of Cognitive Grammar and the Columbia School is highly insightful. Of all the other fine chapters, I most admire Joseph Davis' chapter taking issue with the theoretical construct of the communicative strategy in explaining messages. Prof. Theo Janssen, Free University Amsterdam 05 <i>Cognitive and Communicative Approaches to Linguistic Analysis</i> is a valuable resource for all linguists interested in the role of meaning in language and the integration of disparate theoretical perspectives. This volume explores the possible points of contact between Cognitive Linguistics and the Columbia School. Joined by a commitment to the form-meaning (aka "signal-meaning" within the Columbia School) relationship, Cognitive Linguistics and the Columbia School are opposed according to the articulation of that relationship. Whereas the Columbia School rigorously distills an abstract unitary meaning for a given signal, Cognitive Linguistics pursues the complex structures of polysemy in an unrestrained fashion, and each provides a distinct angle on the truths of language that no single framework can fully account for on its own. The authors give evidence that linguists can communicate substantively and effectively across the theoretical rifts that too often divide us. Laura A.
