Abstract

Se percibe una relación entre la dinámica de fuerzas de la tragedia shakespeareana, según el análisis de A. C. Bradley, y los análisis de la estructura semántica de la causalidad en argumentos verbales o construcciones preposicionales, tal como los analizan los lingüistas cognitivos Steven Pinker y Len Talmy. Estructuras lingüísticas y textuales a diversos niveles de complejidad se basan en esquemas cognitivos comparables que permiten interpretar la acción, los procesos y relaciones, y la experiencia, mediante su representación esquemática.

A relationship may be perceived between the force dynamics of Shakespearean tragedy, according to A. C. Bradley's analysis, and the analysis of the the semantic structure of causality in verbal arguments or prepositional constructions, as analyzed by cognitive linguists Steven Pinker and Len Talmy. Linguistic and textual structures, at various levels of complexity, are based on similar cognitive schemata which allow us to interpret action, processes, relations, and experience, through their schematic representation.
