Abstract
The topic of this volume is the investigation of frame representations and their relations to concept types. Frames are cognitively founded and formally explored devices for representing knowledge about objects and categories by means of attributes and their values. They offer a flexible and expressive way of representing concepts of different types in language, philosophy and science at different levels of detail and at different stages of processing and development. This interdisciplinary volume presents approaches to frames and concept types from the perspective of linguistics and philosophy of science.
