SUMMARY:

As we integrate into the environment, we build concepts and develop the ability to refine our thoughts and language. In this sense, according to Duque (2015), cognition develops in the interaction of the individual with the environment. To that end, our cognition is distributed throughout the body and beyond the body. Cognition is dynamic, complex and organized by language, since it is established in the connections between people and the various resources that exist in nature. With this in mind, the main objective of this study is to demonstrate how the cognitive mechanisms (frames, I-schemes and mental spaces) work together to construct the meaning of the cartoons. From this, we have as specific objectives: to describe how frames, I-schemes and mental spaces help together in the process of construction of the sense of cartoons; identify how the frames articulate and connect to understand the cartoons, for that we observe the behavior of the schematic mechanisms; demonstrate what is the role of mental spaces for cartoons to be understood; investigate the  role of conceptual mixing for the process of understanding cartoons; to show how linguistic information and visual elements work within the process of making sense of cartoons. Because it is fundamental to our research, we embrace the ecological perspective of cognition and language defended by Duque (2015,2016,2017,2018) as a theoretical foundation, mainly with regard to human cognitive processes, responsible for the construction of the meaning of speech through of frames. In addition to this perspective, we look for other theoretical foundations such as the assumption of embodied language by George Lakoff (1987, 1990, 1999). We researched the notion of frame as a cognitive structure defended by the authors as Fillmore (1965, 1967, 1977, 1979, 1982, 1985), Lakoff; Gallese (2005) and Lakoff (2008). We look at the definition of an imagetic scheme presented by Lakoff (1987), Johnson (1987), Gibbs; Colston (2006), Mandler (2004, 2005), Mandler; Cánovas (2014) and Grady (205). Finally, we deepened our studies by looking at Fauconnier's Theory of Mental Spaces (1994,1997) and Fauconnier's Conceptual Blending Theory; Turner (2002) explanations about the creative and imaginative aspects of the human mind, since these aspects develop in the cognitive movements made by the brain in the search for the construction of meaning in the speech, mainly in the construction of meaning in the discursive category charge.
