By illustrating the diverging research methods and procedures possible within the cognitive-linguistic scene, this volume reveals the contribution cognitive linguistics offers to the study of emotions. At the same time, the papers contained in this volume confirm one of the basic assumptions of cognitive linguistics, viz. that conceptualisation is governed by ecological, environmental, culture-specific and universal factors. Angeliki Athanasiadou is Associate Professor at the Department of Theoretical and Applied Linguistics at the Aristotle University, Thessaloniki, Greece. Elbieta Tabakowska is Professor at the Institute of English at the Jagiellonian University, Krakow, Poland.
