The present book contains a transcribed version
of the lectures given by Professor Zoltán Kövecses in November 2010 as one of
the three forum speakers for the 8th China International Forum on Cognitive
Linguistics. The topics presented in this book deal with the language and
conceptualization of emotions, cross-cultural variation in metaphor, metaphor
and metonymy in discourse, and the issue of the relationship between language,
mind, and culture from a cognitive linguistic perspective.
