This book examines linguistic expressions of emotion in intensional
contexts and offers a formally elegant account of the relationship
between language and emotion. The author presents a compelling case
for the view that there exist, contrary to popular belief, logical
universals at the intersection of language and emotive content.
This book shows that emotive structures in the mind that are widely
assumed to be not only subjectively or socio-culturally variable
but also irrelevant to a general theory of cognition offer an
unusually suitable ground for a formal theory of emotive
representations, allowing for surprising logical and cognitive
consequences for a theory of cognition. Challenging mainstream
assumptions in cognitive science and in linguistics, this book will
appeal to linguists, philosophers of the mind, linguistic
anthropologists, psychologists and cognitive scientists of all
persuasions.
