Amidst prevailing debates that construe rationality and
emotionality as polar opposites, this book explores the manner in
which emotions shape not only prevailing conceptions of
rationality, but also culture in general terms, making room for us
to speak of an 'emotional culture' specific to late-modern
societies. Presenting case studies involving cultural artefacts,
narratives found in fictional and non-fictional literature and
television programs, speech patterns and self-talk, fashion, and
social networking practices, The Emotions and Cultural Analysis
sheds light on the relationship between emotion and culture and the
ways in which emotion can be harnessed for the purposes of cultural
analysis. An interdisciplinary volume containing the latest
research from sociology, philosophy, literary studies, linguistics,
and communication, this book will be of interest to those working
on the sociology and philosophy of emotion, cultural studies, and
cultural theory.
