Cover; Half-title; Title; Copyright; Dedication; Contents; Preface; Acknowledgements; 1 The nature of meaning; 2 Embodied meaning and spatial experience; 3 Towards a model of principled polysemy: spatial scenes and conceptualization; 4 The semantic network for over; 5 The vertical axis; 6 Spatial particles of orientation; 7 Bounded landmarks; 8 Conclusion; References; Index

Using a cognitive linguistics perspective, this book provides the most comprehensive, theoretical analysis of the semantics of English prepositions available.
