| Sumario: | In this ground-breaking new book, Anna Wierzbicka brings psychological, anthropological and linguistic insights to bear on our understanding of the way emotions are expressed and experienced in different cultures, languages, and culturally shaped social relations. The expression of emotions in the face, body, and modes of speech are all explored, and Wierzbicka shows how the bodily expression of emotion varies across cultures and challenges traditional approaches to the study of facial expressions. As well as offering a new perspective on human emotions based on the analysis of languages and way of talking about emotion by analyzing empirical evidence from different languages and cultures, this fascinating and controversial book attempts to identify universals of human emotion. This book will be invaluable to academics and students of emotion across the Social Sciences. |
