Language, Concepts, and Emotions: The Role of Language in the Construction of Emotions.

Bamberg, Michael

Language Sciences, v19 n4 p309-40 Oct 1997

Uses three approaches revolving around language issues as a basis for exploring emotions: universal semantics, emotionology, and the theory of "goal-action-outcome knowledge." Uses an approach that attempts to turn around the traditional, realistic picture of the relationship between emotions, cognition, and language. (73 references) (Author/CK)
