Most books on linguistic pragmatics overlook the role of emotion in communication. This book faces the challenges head-on by providing an original study of how we communicate our emotions through language, integrating affect in pragmatic theory. Innovative yet accessible, it is essential reading for anyone interested in communication and emotion.

Tim Wharton is a linguist based at the University of Brighton. His research explores territories beyond those regarded as the 'traditional' fields of linguists and as a result, he has worked with poets, artists, clinicians, designers and even mathematicians to expand the boundaries of linguistic pragmatics.
