{"product_id":"9781107689022","title":"Language, Culture, and Mind : Natural Constructions and Social Kinds","description":"\u003cp\u003eBased on fieldwork carried out in a Mayan village in Guatemala, this book examines local understandings of mind through the lens of language and culture. It focuses on a variety of grammatical structures and discursive practices through which mental states are encoded and social relations are expressed: inalienable possessions, such as body parts and kinship terms; interjections, such as 'ouch' and 'yuck'; complement-taking predicates, such as 'believe' and 'desire'; and grammatical categories such as mood, status and evidentiality. And, more generally, it develops a theoretical framework through which both community-specific and human-general features of mind may be contrasted and compared. It will be of interest to researchers and students working within the disciplines of anthropology, linguistics, psychology, and philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48727004446955,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":98.88,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9781107689022-1.jpg?v=1781654946","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9781107689022","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
