The published version of my M.A. thesis
On July 17, 2011 the following book (paperback edition) was released: (https://www.lap-publishing.com/catalog/details/store/gb/book/978-3-8454-1255-9/grounding-meaning-in-experience):
Torre, Enrico. 2011. Grounding Meaning in Experience. An Embodied Construction Grammar Analysis of Italian Caused-Motion Constructions. Saarbrücken: Lambert Academic Publishing.
As the title suggests, it is a (non-peer reviewed) published version of my M.A. thesis (see the post of April 16, 2011), without any substantial change with regard to its content, but some formal adaptations and the correction of several typos.

I know it is really expensive and probably most of you will not be interested in spending such an amount of money on a non-peer reviewed publication, but should you have the possibility and be willing to help a recent graduate guy who is sincerely interested in the study of language and cognition, I will be eternally grateful to you.
In any case, I would really appreciate if you could simply pass the word to those who you think might be interested in my work. Thank you!
