Abstract

 

In diesem interdisziplinären Hauptseminar geht es um verschiedene Ansätze in der Kognitionswissenschaft und Linguistik, die von der Grundannahme ausgehen, dass kognitive Repräsentationen und Prozesse nicht unabhängig von Wahrnehmung und Motorik betrachtet werden können. Kognition und Sprache sind in einem im Seminar zu konkretisierenden Sinn körperbasiert (embodied). Der Begriff embodiment schließt auch Interaktion von Organismus und Umwelt ein, die eine Grundlage für Intelligenz bildet. Mentale Repräsentationen sind aus Sicht des embodied cognition Ansatzes weder abstrakt noch arbiträr, sondern modal: Symbolische (z.B. linguistische) Repräsentationen und nicht-symbolische (z.B. perzeptuelle) Repräsentationen haben das gleiche Format. Dadurch steht dieses Modell im Gegensatz zu klassischen Auffassungen von Kognition, die kognitive Repräsentationen als abstrakt, amodal und arbiträr betrachten.

Eine erste Annäherung an das Thema embodied cognition erlauben zwei Beispiele aus der Psychologie. Untersuchungen haben gezeigt, dass die Körperhaltung von Probanden eine Auswirkung auf ihre kognitiven Prozesse (z.B. Urteile) haben kann. Ferner gibt es Hinweise, dass die mentalen Repräsentationen, die bei der Verarbeitung von Sprache eine Rolle spielen, identisch sind mit den Repräsentationen, die bei der sinnlichen Wahrnehmung entstehen. Was genau unter embodiment zu verstehen ist, und welche Konzeptionen dieses Begriffs eine herausragende Rolle in der aktuellen Forschung spielen, soll im Seminar untersucht werden.

Grundlage der Diskussion bilden zu etwa gleichen Teilen Texte aus der Kognitionswissenschaft, Psychologie, und der Linguistik. In den ersten Sitzungen des Seminars werden wir die Grundideen der embodied cognition Hypothese erarbeiten und uns der Frage zuwenden, was die Vertreter dieses Ansatzes von traditionellen Theorien des Geistes unterscheidet. Auch auf Vordenker des körperbasierten Ansatzes in der Philosophie der Antike bis hin zum 20. Jahrhundert soll kurz eingegangen werden . Im Zentrum des Seminars stehen drei Themenblöcke: Im ersten größeren Abschnitt sollen verschiedene Argumente für die Existenz analoger Repräsentationen erarbeitet werden. Unter analogen Repräsentationen werden Vorstellungen verstanden, die in gewisser Weise dem vorgestellten Gegenstand "analog" (also z. B. ähnlich) sind. Im zweiten Teil gehen wir auf den Zusammenhang zwischen Embodied Cognition und Sprache ein. Unter anderem sollen dabei Barsalous Theorie der Perceptual Symbol Systems – und damit die Begriffe der modalen Repräsentation und der Simulation – im Vordergrund stehen. Ferner werden wir Ansätze aus der kognitiven Linguistik diskutieren und kritisch hinterfragen, in deren Zentrum die Bedeutung von körperbasierten Metaphern für das Verständnis abstrakter Begriffe steht. Im dritten Teil des Seminars wenden wir uns verschiedenen Versuchen zu, die embodiment Hypothese auf die Modellierung grammatischer Phänomene anzuwenden. Dazu zählen beispielsweise die gebrauchsbasierte Theorie der Bedeutung sowie die Konstruktionsgrammatik, deren Plausibilität durch neuere Erkenntnisse aus der Spracherwerbsforschung (Tomasello) bestätigt wird. Im abschließenden Teil geht es um eine kritische Reflektion der in den vorangehenden Abschnitten diskutierten Theorien sowie um die Frage, ob und wie der Begriff des embodiment modifiziert und erweitert werden wollte.

Scheinkriterien sind die regelmäßige Teilnahme am Seminar, Übernahme eines Referats und die Anfertigung einer Seminararbeit.
