Contributions to the present volume represent various sub-fields in the vigorously developing area of humanities, cognitive linguistics. The reason behind editing the volume has been the need to enrich bibliography in the field with a selection of articles containing a brief introduction to a research methodology and an introduction of how it "works" for linguistic analysis. The kind of publication is addressed, first of all, to the researchers looking for a model for their MA and Ph.D. theses. (Kamila Turewicz)
