The present book is the result of a conference which was held in Paris at the Ecole Normale Supérieure (7–8 February 2003) entitled Space in languages: linguistic systems and cognitive categories. The research presented therein was carried out as part of the project Diversité et évolution des langues : enjeux cognitifs (“Linguistic diversity and evolution: cognitive issues”, GDR 1955) which was financially supported by the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (French National Science Foundation). We wish to thank the following colleagues for their help in thoroughly reviewing the chapters of this book: Dagmara Annaz, Michel Aurnague, Hilary Chappell, Soonja Choi, Bernard Comrie, Walter de Mulder, Béatrice Lamiroy, John Lucy, Marteen Mous, Jan Nuyts, Eric Pederson, Elena Pizzuto, Paolo Ramat, Michael Thomas, Barbara Tversky. Our warmest thanks also go to Madeleine Léveillé for her patient and meticulous editorial and formatting work throughout the process of producing this book.
