Heart- and Soul-Like Constructs across Languages, Cultures, and Epochs (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Peeters, Bert

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

All languages and cultures appear to have one or more "mind-like" constructs that supplement the human body. Linguistic evidence suggests they all have a word for someone, and another word for body, but that doesn't mean that whatever else makes up a human being (i.e. someone) apart from the body is the same everywhere.
