Comfort is a prominent and highly loaded concept, as popular
discourses on cosy environments, safe spaces, but also the
importance of "getting out of your comfort zone" attest. This
volume is the first to investigate "comfort" as a cultural
narrative and emotional touchstone in contemporary culture. Taken
together, the contributions to the volume offer an overview of
different approaches to and conceptualisations of comfort in
linguistics, in literary, media, and cultural studies, and art
history. They showcase how "comfort" serves as a valuable lens to
analyse contemporary artworks and developments, e.g. live theatre
broadcasting or political interventions in the US-American media
sphere.
