Since the 1980s, metonymy and metaphor have been considered as key conceptual mechanisms in
cognitive semantics as initially laid out in Lakoff and Johnson (1980).
Among their topics are fundamentals for a
cognitive semantics of Latin: image schemas and metaphor in the meaning of the Roman animus concept, transforming knowledge: using arts-based activity to explore classics and therapeutic practice, anticipating audiences: Hesiod's Works and Days and cognitive psychology, psychoanalysis and the rhetorical tradition: theory and technique, and the psychology of psychotherapy: ancient and modern perspectives.
However, this section does not solely address the two big applications of linguistics: teaching (Narvajas Colon) and translation (Burgos Cuadrillero and Rohr Schrade; Lopez Zurita; Vazquez Amador and Lario de Onate) but it also covers topics such as critical discourse analysis (Negro; Quijano and Westall), cognitive processing (Dogoriti and Vyzas), and it links translation to other branches of linguistic studies such as intercultural semiotics (Molina-Plaza) and
cognitive semantics (Duran Escribano and Arguelles Alvarez).

Cognitive semantics posits that meanings are mental entities, characterised by mappings from symbols to conceptual structures (Lakoff 1990).

Cognitive Semantics since the late 1980s.
Concerning the theoretical issues, in the volume we find a good proportion between
cognitive semantics and grammaticalization, which, however, should not be separated from each other, as some processes of change can be explained in a complementary way choosing concepts from both these theories.

Israel's paper is, initially, at least, a rather puzzling piece because the author wishes to combine neo-Gricean pragmatics and
cognitive semantics to produce something that he calls "NeoGricean Cognitive Grammar." This presents something of a puzzle because the kind ofpragmatics introduced by Grice maintains a number of heuristically useful distinctions: what is said vs.
