metadata.value: The paper reviews recent developments in cognitive linguistics now that three decades, give
  or take, separate us from the time it was born. The author claims that these developments have
  not yet been brought together, nor contemplated at length. Both formal and substantial aspects
  are identified, the former manifested by cognitive linguistics becoming yet more deeply
  grounded in academic life and curricula across different countries. The latter are represented,
  first, by further elaborations of classical works, which can be exemplified by manifold studies
  in conceptual metaphor and metonymy, or lexical polysemy. Second, new trends have become
  noticeable in recent years, in particular, a definite shift from theoretical concerns to practical
  applications. This has given rise to the so-called applied cognitive linguistics concerned
  mostly with second language acquisition and translation studies. Besides, cognitive linguistics
  can be seen to have gone empirical, making close contacts with corpus linguistics. However,
  the central development of contemporary cognitive linguistics, as posited by the author, is
  its integration tendency. Rather than go on opposing itself to other schools and branches,
  cognitive linguistics today seeks to become entrenched in traditional philological fields, such
  as lexicography, stylistics, poetics, discourse analysis, sociolinguistics, ethnolinguistics, etc.,
  enriching them with new ideas and approaches. The key intrigue is whether cognitive linguistics
  will remain as such or get absorbed by other fields of study. Common theoretical
  foundations shared by major classical cognitive works are certainly a uniting factor, but the
  inherent heterogeneity of cognitive linguistics may tip the balance in favour of breaking down
  into a number of smaller fields and groups of scholars. Be that as it may, cognitive linguistics
  is undergoing changes that may be indicative of its further development.
