Language from the Body: Iconicity and Metaphor in American Sign Language

The debate over the role of meaning in linguistic theory can be resolved by evidence from signed languages. Language from the Body rebuts the generativist linguistic theories which separate form and meaning and asserts that iconicity can only be described in a cognitivist framework where meaning can influence form.
