Description
Summary:The subject of this review article is an edited volume by Nina-Maria Klug and Sina Lautenschläger. From the perspective of semantics and linguistics as a cognitive science, the works collected in this volume contribute to cultural, culturally-related onomasiological considerations within the context of language as a cognitive science. The conceptual domain of love is explored through examples from various areas of language use: in online dating communication, gender-specific advice on flirting and courtship communication, the mourning of parents for their deceased children, the grieving process after the death of a surviving partner, marketing strategies, musical-dramatic imaginings of love from a linguistic perspective, the non-linear structure of language, staged animal love in zoo documentary soaps, children’s books, and in the design of interstate relationships. The authors employ interdisciplinary approaches to illuminate the phenomenon of love from both linguistic and cultural-social science perspectives. The book serves as an inspiration and challenge for the reader, occasionally provoking contradiction and critical voices. Precisely because it does not leave the reader indifferent to the important topics addressed in this thematic volume on love, it is highly recommended for conscious and mature language connoisseurs. It is a valuable contribution to the interdisciplinary dialogue on the cultural and linguistic dimensions of love.
