These Ten Lectures , a transcribed version of talks given by professor Geeraerts in 2009 at Beihang University in Beijing, introduce and illustrate both dimensions. The ‘variation of meaning’ perspective involves looking at types of semantic and categorial variation, at the role of social and cultural factors in semantic variation and change, and at the interplay of stereotypes, prototypes and norms. The ‘meaning of variation’ perspective involves looking at the way in which categorization processes of the type studied by Cognitive Linguistics shape how scholars and laymen think about language variation.Distinguished Lectures in Cognitive Linguistics8.SociolinguisticsCognitive grammarSocial aspectsSociolinguistics.Cognitive grammarSocial aspects.306.44Geeraerts Dirk1955-548434MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910816811103321Ten lectures on cognitive sociolinguistics3978195UNINA
