Produktbeschreibung
The Routledge Handbook of Language and Emotion offers a variety of critical theoretical and methodological perspectives that interrogate the ways in which ideas about and experiences of emotion are shaped by linguistic encounters, and vice versa. Taking an interdisciplinary approach which incorporates disciplines such as linguistic anthropology, sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, psychology, communication studies, education, sociology, folklore, religious studies, and literature, this book:

explores and illustrates the relationship between language and emotion in the five key areas of language socialisation; culture, translation and transformation; poetry, pragmatics and power; the affective body-self; and emotion communities;

situates our present-day thinking about language and emotion by providing a historical and cultural overview of distinctions and moral values that have traditionally dominated Western thought relating to emotions and their management;

provides a unique insight into the multiple ways in which language incites emotion, and vice versa, especially in the context of culture.

With contributions from an international range of leading and emerging scholars in their fields, The Routledge Handbook of Language and Emotion is an indispensable resource for students and researchers who are interested in incorporating interdisciplinary perspectives on language and emotion into their work.

Rezensionen
"This timely collection of original essays showcases innovative research that explores the multiplicity of ways emotion permeates verbal, nonverbal and visual communicative resources throughout the life cycle and across genres in often surprising ways. Drawing on a range of generative theoretical and methodological frameworks and investigating interdisciplinary connections, these intelligently curated essays highlight the centrality of systematically investigating situated practices and their linguistic and cultural ideologies as key to understanding commonalities and variations across persons, activities, and communities, and the sociohistorical, political, and interpersonal consequences of these patterns. Read them, and be inspired."

Bambi B Schieffelin, New York University, USA

"This Handbook brings together a wide range of cases, authors, and disciplinary approaches to a topic of great importance. The chapters variously consider major issues such as how the notions of "language" and "emotion" have been understood in different times and places, how they are bound up with norms and values, and how they are linked to conceptions of body, reason, self, and society. The collection's many strong contributions outline the state of the art on this topic and make the volume an indispensable aid to scholars and students alike."

Judith Irvine, University of Michigan, USA

"The Routledge Handbook of Language and Emotion offers an impressive multitude of perspectives on the intersection of emotion, language, culture and self. In this handbook, leading scholars from various strands of humanities and social sciences paint fascinating pictures of the historical, cultural and situational variation of emotional practices."

Anssi Peräkylä, University of Helsinki, Finland
