Techniques that systematically account for representations of experiences of affective states, such as those in this book, are rare and crucial in improving understanding of these experiences. The findings and methods of this book therefore potentially have bearing on the study, diagnosis and treatment of depression and other mental illnesses. Zsófia Demjén follows the cognitive turn in both literary studies and linguistics here, emerging with a greater understanding of Plath, her diarized output and her experience of her inner world"--$$cProvided by publisher. 001381991 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001381991 60010 $$aPlath, Sylvia$$xPsychology. 001381991 650_0 $$aEmotive (Linguistics) 001381991 650_0 $$aAffect (Psychology) 001381991 650_0 $$aCorpora (Linguistics) 001381991 650_0 $$aNarration (Rhetoric) 001381991 650_0 $$aPsycholinguistics. 001381991 650_0 $$aLanguage and languages$$xStyle. 001381991 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001381991 830_0 $$aAdvances in stylistics. 001381991 852__ $$bebk 001381991 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=2079211$$zOnline Access 001381991 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1381991$$pGLOBAL_SET 001381991 980__ $$aBIB 001381991 980__ $$aEBOOK 001381991 982__ $$aEbook 001381991 983__ $$aOnline
