Features of Common Sense Geography: Implicit knowledge structures in ancient geographical texts (Antike Kultur und Geschichte, Band 16) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

The contributions in this volume combine fundamental questions of common sense geography with case studies of ancient geographical texts. The book seeks to bridge synchronic cognitive linguistic and cognitive psychological approaches to ancient texts with a diachronic perspective. The mental modelling of common sense geography is a fruitful theoretical approach to gain deeper insights in universal and cultural-specific mnemonic representational systems on the one hand, and to enhance our understanding of ancient geography on the other.
