Pragmatics from a Cognitive Linguistic PerspectiveA Review of Introduction to Cognitive Pragmatics

This paper reviews Klaus-Uwe Panther’ s (2022) Introduction to Cognitive Pragmatics. The book discusses the key concepts and issues of pragmatics from a cognitive-linguistic perspective. It seeks for a blend of cognitive linguistics and pragmatics and offers a unified model of analysis. This monograph plays a leading role both in theoretical and methodological terms. The integration of pragmatics and cognitive linguistics is conducive to deepening cognitive linguistics research, and enriching the perspectives and methods in pragmatics study, and will shed light on the understanding of cognitive mechanisms in language use.
