Sažetak
Science is a formalized method of researching things and relations that exist in a reality. Scientific methodology of research implies disciplinary perspectivization that describes a segment of the reality, allowing a rich, detailed and structurally coherent description of a domain. This ontological segmentation of scientific research often leads to disregard of other scientific perspectives. Wholesome ontology model that can bridge the epistemic gap from material and psychological to cultural domains are becoming necessity for the interdisciplinary research projects that want to include emergent phenomena from the more complex levels without reductionist tendencies. This paper proposes such a general Ontological model on the basis of system theory and emergence principle (Capra & Luisi, 2014). It describes the categories of the human reality as (unique) superclass (15) -subclass network structure with edges denoting mereological connections of concepts, linking constructing concepts to the emerging concept from the next superclass in the hierarchical ontology structure. The emergent structure of the categorical model is further designed to include a linguistic representation of embodied, enacted, embedded and extended cognition knowledge forming the Ontological model of Concepts and Constructions. Linguistic constructions modify the conceptualizations by profiling specific aspects of a domain. OMLCC expresses the epistemological and ontological status of the concepts referenced by the lexical units. The goal of the OMLCC is to a) formalize the ontological classification of lexical units in language(s), b) identify metonymic constructions as congruence between the construed linguistic conceptualization and the mereological ontological relations, b) identify metaphoric constructions as incongruence between the asserted semantic- syntactic conceptualization and the mereological ontological relation. This emergent ontological network approach enables cross-linguistic formalization of the creative semasiological processes (etymology, metonymy, metaphor extensions) that language(s) as an instrument of cognizing and cultural conceptualization tool adds to the representation of the 4-E cognition. This paper specifically describes the process of: a) modelling the emergent ontological hierarchy of entities and categories lexical units necessary and sufficient to describe emotion domain(s) as represented by Component Process Model (CPM) of Emotion (Scherer 2013) and formalized by MFOEM ontology, and b) formalizing the semantic- syntactic properties of linguistic constructions in English and Croatian used to construe the meanings of emotion domain(s) within large corpora hrWaC (1, 3 GW).
