In previous studies of languages from non-Indo-European families, cognitive linguistics has been remarkably useful in explaining non-prototypical structures as well as more common ones. The book expands that effort into a new set of families and languages.Cognitive linguistics research ;18.Cognitive grammarCongressesGrammar, Comparative and generalCongressesCognitive grammarGrammar, Comparative and general415ER 940rvkCasad Eugene H1558424Palmer Gary B.1942-468960International Cognitive Linguistics Conference(1999 :Stockholm, Sweden)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782195103321Cognitive linguistics and non-Indo-European languages3822756UNINA01831nam 2200289z- 450 991083293280332120230830061700.088-6969-402-X(CKB)4970000000235698(EXLCZ)99497000000023569820230725c2020uuuu -u- -engAmerigo Vespucci the historical context of his explorations and scientific contribution /Pietro Omodeo ; edited by Pietro Daniel OmodeoFondazione Ca' Foscari88-6969-403-8 "This book offers a new reconstruction of Amerigo Vespucci's navigational and scientific endeavours in their historical context. The Author argues that all the manuscripts or texts that Vespucci left to posterity are reliable and true, except for several amendments imposed upon him for reasons linked to the political and economic interests of those who authorised him to undertake his journeys or which were the result of relationships with his companions. The earliest genuine documentation, which dates from the late fifteenth century or early sixteenth century, confirms this position. Fortunately, careful philological studies of Vespucci's principal written works are available, while some of his original drawings, which confirm, clarify and enrich what he narrated in his letters, can be identified in Waldseemüller's large map known as Universalis cosmographia (1507)"--Page 5.Amerigo VespucciExplorersItalyBiographySourcesAmericaEarly accounts to 1600AmericaDiscovery and explorationItalianAmericaDiscovery and explorationSpanishExplorersOmodeo Pietro1919-,Omodeo Pietro DanielBOOK9910832932803321UNINA
