In Everyday Conceptions of Emotion, prominent anthropologists,
linguists and psychologists come together for the first time to
discuss how emotions are conceptualised by people of different
cultures and ages, speaking different languages. Anger, fear,
jealousy and emotion itself are concepts that are bound up with the
English language, embedded in a way of thinking, acting and
speaking. At the same time, the metaphors underlying such concepts
are often similar across languages, and children of different
cultures follow common developmental pathways. The book thus
discusses the interplay of social and cultural factors that humans
share in their development of an understanding of the affective
side of their lives. For researchers interested in emotion,
development of concepts and language, cultural and linguistic
influences on psychological processes.
