Consciousness and the Cultural Invention of Language

Beschreibung

This book studies the origins of language. It presents language as the product of a unique non-linguistic cognitive feature (i.e., metacognition) that emerged late in human evolution.

Autor

Filippo-Enrico Cardini has a degree in English and German (Università di Genova, Italy), an MA in "Language, Society, and Culture" (University of East Anglia, UK), and a PhD in Linguistics (Lancaster University, UK). His doctoral work investigated the subject of Linguistic Relativity, and he is especially attracted to issues concerning language and cognition. This is reflected in some articles he wrote in the past on motion conceptualisation and on metaphors. Over recent years, he has developed a growing interest for the subject of language evolution, which has resulted in the publishing of an article on this subject in the Journal Lingua.
