This book is an in-depth qualitative linguistic study of loneliness
disclosures in interviews with undergraduate students in the UK.
While much loneliness research has been undertaken in the areas of
psychology, social policy and education, such studies have
prioritised the social factors behind mental distress without
paying explicit attention to the medium in which such distress is
communicated and embodied (i.e. language). This monograph
supplements this growing body of work by arguing for a stronger
focus on the insights which linguistic analysis can provide for
investigating how and why loneliness is disclosed by Higher
Education students. This book is the first study to address
discourses of loneliness in Higher Education specifically from a
linguistic perspective, and will be of interest to education and
healthcare professionals, counselling and welfare providers, and
students and scholars of discourse analysis and linguistics.
