Um aval muito especial para o trabalho que estou realizando em Lingüística Cognitiva. MARK TURNER , autor do “THE WAY WE THINK”, tem respondido os meus e.mails e num dos últimos, ao ler um trabalho que fiz sobre MESCLAGEM CONCEPTUAL, me perguntou se eu gostaria de que esse trabalho aparecesse em sua página principal http://blending.stanford.edu. Lógico que fiquei muito honrado. A indicação está lá. O meu trabalho sobre Lingüística Cognitiva, SOBRE MISTURA E MESCLAGEM, é o único escrito em PORTUGUÊS.

Aqui vão os e-mails

Neste perguntei-lhe sobre a capa do THE WAY WE THINK.

Good morning, I’m a Brazilian Professor from UFF. I’ve been reading your book about conceptual blending. I’d like to know if you could tell me something about the cover of the book. It is remarkable, well done and I’m sure it ás a connection with the subject of the book. Who did it? What the draws in it signify? What is the relation between the cover and the contents (COCEPTUAL BLENDING)? Would you give any site to research about? How could I know more about you and Fauconnier? Thank you. Professor Maurício da Silva.

Dear Maurício:

Thank you for writing.  In fact, we did not discuss the cover with the artist.  I expect that the name of the artist is recorded somewhere in the book.
The way to learn more about blending is to visit http://blending.stanford.edu.

Very truly yours,
