520    Traveling Conceptualizations is a monograph which is 
       concerned with African cultural conceptualizations in 
       Jamaican. It contributes to the study of Transatlantic 
       relations between Africa and Jamaica, and in particular to
       the understanding of African influences in Jamaican 
       linguistic practices. The book constitutes a first study 
       of these phenomena from a cognitive-linguistic perspective
       and investigates traveling conceptualizations at the 
       intersection of language, culture and cognition. The 
       author explores Jamaican linguistic practices in different
       domains namely conceptualizations involving parts of the 
       (human) body, conceptualizations of events, roles and 
       relations underlying serial verb constructions, and 
       conceptualizations of kinship and names. The study can be 
       regarded as an innovative contribution as it looks not 
       only at linguistic expressions on the surface but 
       discusses the underlying cultural and cognitive basis of 
       semantic structures. The study thus aims at making African
       -Jamaican connections on the conceptual level visible and 
       also discusses notions of consciousness, agency and 
       emblematicity.
