Mental Spaces in Grammar :Conditional Constructions.[electronic resource]. - Cambridge :Cambridge University Press,2005. - 315 p.

Cover; Half-title; Series-title; Title; Copyright; Dedication; Contents; Acknowledgments; Preface; Note on abbreviated citations; The door-scraper in the Wild Wood: an informal lesson in frame metonymy; 1 Conditional constructions, mental spaces, and semantic compositionality; 2 Prediction, alternativity, and epistemic stance; 3 Tense, epistemic distance, and embedded spaces; 4 Future and present forms in conditional constructions; 5 Non-alternatives and alternatives: mental spaces in different domains; 6 ��hen��and ��ven if�� mental-space deixis and referential uniqueness

Conditional constructions have long fascinated linguists and philosophers. In this pioneering study, Barbara Dancygier and Eve Sweetser offer a new descriptive framework for the study of conditionality, broadening the range of richly described conditional constructions. This significant contribution to the field will be welcomed by theoretical and cognitive linguists alike.
