This monograph examines three aesthetic emotions in AElfric's Lives
of Saints. Drawing on recent research on emotional communities,
this research combines methods from Cognitive Sciences and other
studies on early Medieval English language and literature in order
to explore AElfric's usage of the terms in the lexical domain of
amazement. The main aim of this study is to identify preferred
modes of expression that would reveal a series of emotional rules
in the context of AElfric's emotional community. Looking into
AElfric's usage of this lexical domain and how he depicts emotion
dynamics in these texts, this monograph shows how the emotion
family of amazement is central to the hagiographical genre, and it
highlights important emotion-regulation scripts that operate in
these texts.
