The originally semiotic notion of iconicity has gained widespread attention beyond the field of linguistics; this volume thus brings together research exploring a wide range of topics in iconicity from different perspectives. It explores the history of iconicity and its place in linguistic theory, in particular how the idea of iconicity has developed over time and how it has recently begun to once again influence thinking and theorizing about language. By presenting a very broad spectrum of iconicity, the chapters provide greater recognition of its influence and present a clearer picture of its scope across the languages of the world. They also offer a critical discussion of the notion of iconicity, as its parameters, dimensions, and operationalizations are not always easy to define. The volume will appeal to linguists of all theoretical persuasions, but also to a wider audience outside linguistics proper, including researchers and students in the fields of literature, philosophy, psychology, and cognitive science.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Olga Fischer,Kimi Akita,Pamela Perniss\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0192849484\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780192849489\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/16\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 1096\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.47lbs","brand":"Olga Fischer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48446951358719,"sku":"9780192849489","price":245.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_343e3315-91e1-4436-92cb-2f5a4a4ea6d8.jpg?v=1777227821","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-oxford-handbook-of-iconicity-olga-fischer-9780192849489","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
