Poslední úprava: Mgr. Andrea Hudáková, Ph.D. (31.01.2019)
The course introduces the current discussion of iconicity in language: what is its role in grammatical structure across languages, in cognitive processing and in the ontogenesis and phylogenesis of language.
The courses focuses on the key areas of the current interest in iconicity in both modalities of language, with an particular emphasis on the theoretical underpinnings and methodological issues related to these ares.
The seminar is based on assigned reading and discussions in weekly classes.
