Linguistic Approach

The article explores how two cultural models which were dominant in Great Britain during the Victorian era – the model based on the philosophy of ‘technologically useful bodies’ and the Christian model of empathy – were connected with the understanding of disability. Both cultural models are metaphorically constituted and based on the ‘container’ and ‘up and down’ image schemas respectively. 1 The intersubjective character of cultural models is foregrounded, in particular, in the context of conceiving of abstract concepts such as emotions and attitudes. The issue of disability is addressed from a cognitive linguistic approach to literary analysis while studying the reflections of the two cultural models on the portrayal of the main characters of Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol. The studied cultural models appeared to be relatively stable, while their evaluative aspects proved to be subject to historical change. The article provides incentives for further study which could include research on the connectedness between, on one hand, empathy with fictional characters roused by reading Dickens's works and influenced by cultural models dominant during the Victorian period in Britain and, on the other hand, the contemporaries’ actual actions taken to ameliorate the social position of the disabled in Victorian Britain.

Preliminary Study

Abstract In this contribution, we study the use of the German verbs stehen (‘to stand’), sitzen (‘to sit’) and their causative equivalents stellen (‘to put in a standing position’) and setzen (‘to put in a sitting position’) in noun-verb phrases, such as an der Spitze stehen (lit. ‘to stand at the top’ = ‘to be at the top’) or auf die Beine stellen (lit. ‘to put upright on the legs’ = ‘to achieve’). Among these phrases we are looking more particularly at the subcategory of complex noun-verb phrases which are commonly referred to as Funktionsverbgefüge in German. Numerous examples from the corpus DeReKo (IDS) are analyzed with the aim of identifying the conceptualizations and image schemas that motivate their use. This preliminary study shows that, even if these verbs seem very close at first sight, their use is highly differentiated.

Image Schema

This paper investigates the path image schema in Russian motion verbs. It is argued that this image schema provides a principled explanation why Russian has a contrast between unidirectional and non-directional unprefixed motion verbs, but no such contrast for prefixed verbs.
