Abstract:

Providing an up-to-date, multi-perspective and cross-linguistic
account of the centrality of the expressive function in communication,
this book explores the conceptualization of emotions in language and
the high emotional 'temperature' of a variety of contemporary
discourses.
Adopting a number of methodological angles, both qualitative and
quantitative, the chapters present insights from cognitive
linguistics, (critical) discourse analysis, corpus linguistics and
sociolinguistics, as well as those resulting from the combination of
these approaches. Using a wide variety of data types, from song lyrics
and TV series to Twitter posts and political speeches, and through the
analysis of a range of languages, including Arabic, English, Polish,
Italian, Hungarian, and Turkish, the book offers a panoramic view of
the multi-faceted interaction between language, expressivity and
cognition.
