Author & Title: Todd Oakley, Elements of Attention: A new Approach to Meaning Construction in the Human Sciences (Todd Oakley Copyright 2004).
Abstract:
The following chapters are taken from the first draft
of a book length study originally titled A Grammar of Attention: A
Treatise on the Problem of Meaning. The introduction outlines the
purpose, method, and organization of the manuscript, while the other two
chapters discuss at length the implications for cognitive science and
linguistics for treating attention as the most fundamental organizing
principle. Other chapters not presented here explore the implications of
treating attention in semiotics and rhetoric, two other disciplines
concerned with the problem of meaning.
Keywords: attention, memory, categorization, meaning, cognitive linguistics, mental spaces, conceptual blending Reading: PDF file The manuscript was published in 2009 with the title: From Attention to Meaning, Peter Lang Publishing Group: http://www.peterlang.com/index.cfm?vID=11442&vLang=E&vHR=1&vUR=3&vUUR=4
