This book addresses underexplored areas within Cognitive Linguistics, gathering contributions that align with the application fields outlined in the ACL series introduction. The first section features foundational papers by established scholars, addressing ongoing issues in the discipline and introducing themes for the subsequent sections. The following sections predominantly showcase research by emerging scholars, who demonstrate various contextualization methods. Their work often leads to theoretical advancements or expands the scope of applications, including interdisciplinary approaches to fields like theology and metaphysics. Many papers exemplify the empirical turn in Cognitive Linguistics, illustrating how applying theory to new data with innovative methodologies can refine or modify theoretical frameworks. This book is pertinent for students and academics in (applied) linguistics, particularly those focused on language acquisition, pedagogy, intercultural communication, literary and translation studies, as well as related disciplines.
