Beskrivning

This volume is the first to explore the formal linguistic expressions of emotions at different levels of linguistic complexity. Research on the language-emotion interface has to date concentrated primarily on the conceptual dimension of emotions as expressed via language, with semantic and pragmatic studies dominating the field. The chapters in this book, in contrast, bring together work from different linguistic frameworks: generative syntax, functional and usage-based linguistics, formal semantics and pragmatics, and experimental phonology. The volume contributes to the growing field of research that explores the interaction between linguistic expressions and the 'expressive dimension' of language, and will be of interest to linguists from a range of theoretical backgrounds who are interested in the language-emotion interface.

Recensioner i media

This volume offers cutting-edge research on the structural coding of expressive meaning. The eleven chapters plus introduction convincingly show that emotion finds expression on the syntactic, morphological, and prosodic level. Different theoretical frameworks, ranging from generative to functional and usage-based, support the challenge of discovering the often subtle expressive meaning-form relations in various languages (Romance, Germanic, Japanese).
