Abstract

The present study aims at analyzing cognitive schemas in two long poems. Path schema, containment schema, and force schema were frequent in the text. It is understood that some linguistic forms are connected with some schemas; some special prepositions with containment schemas, verbs (or nouns derived from them) containing the concept of motion with path schemas, and verbs (or nouns derived from such verbs) containing the concept of power accompanied by two nouns with force schemas. There are probably no relations between the theme of the text and path and containment schemas, but such a relation can be found between the theme and force schema.
