Abstract
Neste trabalho, parte adaptada de minha dissertação de mestrado, eu reflito sobre o que exatamente implica na iconicidade de algumas unidades linguísticas da Libras, principalmente naquelas que estão relacionadas a domínios abstratos: emoções e sentimentos, por exemplo. Alicerçado nos pressupostos da Linguística Cognitiva, eu defendo a ideia de que há um processo de conceitualização proporcionando o surgimento de um tipo de sinal que reúne em sua base razão, imaginação, metáfora, iconicidade e evidências de experiências corporificadas da comunidade surda.References
