Figuring out Figuration: A cognitive linguistic account
María Sandra Peña-Cervel and Francisco José Ruiz de Mendoza Ibáñez
This book combines explanatory breadth with analytical delicacy. It offers a comprehensive study of a broad array of traditional figures of speech by systematizing linguistic evidence of the cognitive processes underlying them. Such processes are explicitly linked to different communicative… read more[Figurative Thought and Language, 14] 2022. ix, 296 pp.
Metaphor and Metonymy revisited beyond the Contemporary Theory of Metaphor: Recent developments and applications
Edited by Francisco Gonzálvez-García, María Sandra Peña-Cervel and Lorena Pérez-Hernández
The contributions in this volume go beyond the Contemporary Theory of Metaphor complementing it in a number of relevant ways. Some of the papers argue for a more dynamic, interdisciplinary approach to metaphor looking into it from semiotic, psychological and socio-cultural perspectives. Other… read more[Benjamins Current Topics, 56] 2013. vi, 318 pp.
Metaphor and metonymy revisited beyond the Contemporary Theory of Metaphor: Recent developments and applications
Edited by Francisco Gonzálvez-García, María Sandra Peña-Cervel and Lorena Pérez-Hernández
Special issue of Review of Cognitive Linguistics 9:1 (2011) iv, 339 pp.
2025 Chapter 3. Sources of incongruity in advertising What makes a Figure: Rethinking figurativity, Colston, Herbert L. (ed.), pp. 66–97 | Chapter
The role of conceptual metaphor and metonymy in advertising has been investigated in depth, especially in multimodal approaches (Forceville, 1996, 2008; Pérez-Sobrino, 2017). However, other forms of figurative thinking have not received as much attention and the cognitive processes involved in… read more
2022 Lexical blending in terms of cognitive modeling Figurativity and Human Ecology, Bagasheva, Alexandra, Bozhil Hristov and Nelly Tincheva (eds.), pp. 275–304 | Chapter
This corpus-based proposal provides a fine-grained study of lexical blending in the English language in terms of cognitive modeling. Blending as a word-formation process has gained growing popularity in recent years either to fill certain lexical/conceptual gaps or simply to endow language with… read more
2022 Simple and complex cognitive modelling in oblique translation strategies in a corpus of English–Spanish drama film titles Target 34:1, pp. 98–129 | Article
This article provides a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the translation of English drama film titles into Peninsular Spanish, drawing on cognitive modelling and following preliminary findings in Peña-Cervel (2016). Our study is consistent with the epistemological and ontological… read more
2017 Chapter 6. Revisiting the English resultative family of constructions: A unifying account Constructing Families of Constructions: Analytical perspectives and theoretical challenges, Ruiz de Mendoza Ibáñez, Francisco José, Alba Luzondo Oyón and Paula Pérez-Sobrino (eds.), pp. 175–204 | Chapter
The resultative construction has spurred much debate over the last five decades. This proposal, which is embedded within the Cognitive Construction Grammar paradigm, provides a critical discussion on two fine-grained classifications of resultatives, Goldberg and Jackendoff’s (2004) and Luzondo’s… read more
2017 Chapter 2. Construing and constructing hyperbole Studies in Figurative Thought and Language, Athanasiadou, Angeliki (ed.), pp. 41–73 | Chapter
Hyperbole has received little attention in Cognitive Linguistics, while studies within psychology and pragmatics leave aside its representational aspects. To fill this gap, this chapter looks into linguistic evidence of the cognitive operations that underlie its communicative… read more
2016 Argument structure and implicational constructions at the crossroads Review of Cognitive Linguistics 14:2, pp. 474–497 | Article
On the basis of corpus data and in consonance with cognitively-oriented constructionist approaches to language, mainly the work by Goldberg (1995, 2006) and the developments in Ruiz de Mendoza and Mairal (2008, 2011), we offer a fine-grained analysis of some specific instantiations of the… read more

On the basis of Cognitive Model Theory, this chapter develops a number of explanatory tools – in the domains of conceptual prominence and of constraints on conceptual mappings – that prove useful in dealing systematically with similarities and differences among related grammatical phenomena, both… read more
2004 The image-schematic basis of the EVENT STRUCTURE metaphor Annual Review of Cognitive Linguistics: Volume 2, Ruiz de Mendoza Ibáñez, Francisco José (ed.), pp. 127–158 | Article
Within the framework of Cognitive Linguistics, the study of metaphor has received great attention mainly because of its conceptual character. This conception is at odds with traditional accounts, in which metaphor was merely a linguistic phenomenon endowed with a decorative function. One of the… read more
