Description
Abstract
Christine es una paciente tratada por
el neurólogo Oliver Sacks y cuyo caso aparece
en El hombre que confundió a su mujer con un
sombrero. Christine padece una extraña enfermedad que hace que su cuerpo deje de obedecerla.
Se siente extraña, se siente “desencarnada”. Este
artículo se centra en cómo la mente se halla encarnada. La semántica cognitiva subraya que pensamiento y cuerpo no son entidades separadas. El
cuerpo ejerce influencia en el conocimiento y
en el lenguaje en un nivel muy básico. Nuestro
cuerpo está detrás de muchas de las metáforas que
empleamos de forma cotidiana.
Christine is a woman patient treated by the neurologist Oliver Sacks. Her case appears in the The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat. Christina suffered from a strange illness. One day her body ceased to obey her. She feels strange, “disembodied”. This paper concentrates on this topic: the mind as something inherently embodied. Cognitive semantics maintains that body and thought are not separate entities. The body is seen as exerting its influence on language and knowledge at a more basic level now. Embodied metaphors are very prevalent in everyday talk, even if the bodily origin is often not easily evident.
