Summary [This book] examines the increasing evidence that emotions are not prewired, internal processes, but are events that are influenced and shaped by one's social, cultural, and linguistic experiences. /// By integrating a diversity of scientific approaches, "Emotion and Culture: Empirical Studies of Mutual Influence" shows that culture penetrates deeply into the component process of emotion: cognitive, linguistic, and even physiological and neurochemical. /// This multidisciplinary volume contains contributions from international authorities in the fields of psychology, anthropology, and linguistics and deals with emotion as a social product; the relationships among emotion, language, and cognition; and emotion as a moral category and phenomenon.
