The ?head? is investigated as a source domain for extending multiple concepts in various target domains accessed via metaphor or metonymy. The contributions in the volume provide comparative and case studies based on analyses of the first-hand data from languages representing all continents and diversified linguistic groups, including endangered languages of Africa, Australia and Americas. The book offers new reflections on the relationship between embodiment, cultural situatedness and universal tendencies of semantic change. The findings contribute to general research on metaphor, metonymy, and polysemy within a paradigm of cognitive linguistics. 410 0$aBrill's Studies in Language, Cognition and Culture$v20. 606 $aLanguage and culture 606 $aHuman body and language 606 $aLanguage and languages$xVariation 606 $aLanguage and languages$xPhysiological aspects 615 0$aLanguage and culture. 615 0$aHuman body and language. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xVariation. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xPhysiological aspects. 676 $a417.7 702 $aKraska$b Iwona 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815551903321 996 $aEmbodiment in cross-linguistic studies$93972775 997 $aUNINA
