Various senses of quotidian words ─not just literal or physical
senses, but also figurative senses─ appear very often in narrative
storytelling contexts. In the case of prepositions, polysemy is an
acknowledged evident phenomenon. Many linguists in the cognitive
linguistics tradition have analysed the semantic contrasts between
prepositions, on the grounds of image-schemas (Lakoff 1987), frames
of reference (Levinson 2003) and other cognitive patterns. The aim of
this paper is to clarify the meaning of the prepositions near, next to
and by as well as the perception boundaries that contribute to that
meaning, through the analysis of the spatial language in the book The
Hobbit, by John Ronald R. Tolkien. This literary work is particularly
useful for the analysis of spatial language because, by describing
spatial environments and situations, the author helps readers
understand an imaginary world and controls their spatial perception
and conceptualisation. The term image-schema refers to imaginative
procedures in connection with meaning and perception. According to
Navarro i Ferrando (2000, 2006, 2011), there are three different
image-schematic perceptual dimensions in which trajector (TR) and
landmark (LM) play their role for the conceptualisation of a particular
scene. Thus, this research provides a proposal of prepositional
meaning and polysemy regarding image-schematic structure,
according to a three-dimensional system, which includes topology,
force-dynamics and function to illustrate TR-LM relationships. The
results shed some light on the semantic contrast between next to,
near and by. [-]
