| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We studied displacement in language, a remarkable feature of human language, which is to express something remote from here and now, using a multiple approach adopting theoretical, experimental, and constructive methodologies. It was shown that the idiosyncratic feature of displacement in language communication was that it makes possible to transmit and share what the partner has not known. In order to investigate the mechanism and process of establishing this feature, we developed an experimental paradigm of drawing communication in terms of experimental semiotics approach. Through the analysis of this experiment, we found that combined use of metaphorical and metonymical expressions was effective for displaced communication and that a symbol system changed from iconic to figurative in realizing displaced communication. We discussed the possibility that this change of symbol system occurred in the initial cultural evolution of human language.
