Spanish sartorial terms in the 16th century "Premáticas" belonging to the Jagiellonian Library and their cognitive linguistics analysis

Bibliogr. s. 337-339

Within the context of cognitive linguistics, language is not the unique manner of human cognition of the outside world. The earliest and most primary sensory experiences are decisive for the subsequent perception and comprehension of the surroundings. Specific legislation, concerning licenses and prohibitions regarding clothes worn in the sixteenth century in Spain, was assembled in the "Premática" of 1563, a copy of which is conserved in the "Volsciana Collection" belonging to the Jagiellonian Library in Cracow. The aim of the analysis of those regulations was to identify the conceptual metaphors and metonymies present in the sartorial terminology of the time.

En el contexto de la lingüística cognitiva, la lengua no es la única vía de la cognición humana del mundo exterior, ya que las vivencias sensoriales y experiencias primigenias son decisivas para la percepción y comprensión del entorno posteriores. Las leyes referidas a los permisos y prohibiciones acerca de la vestimenta del siglo XVI en España, reflejadas en la "Premática" de 1563, conservada en la "Colección Volsciana" de la Biblioteca Jaguelónica de Cracovia, han servido como material de análisis para detectar las metáforas y metonimias conceptuales presentes en la terminología sartorial de la época.
