Description

This original collection explores how language shapes and constrains the expression of romantic and sexual desire. The contributors employ empirical linguistic approaches whilst engaging directly with gender studies and cultural studies issues, examining language used to mediate romantic and sexual desire, how media represents intimacy, and the attitudes and assumptions underlying these representations. The book reveals the dual pressures exerted upon language when expressing desire and the ways language itself limits the subject's capacity to communicate intimate feelings, offering critical insights into the intersection of sexuality, communication, and cultural meaning.

Key Features

Explores the relationship between language and the expression of romantic and sexual desire across multiple perspectives.

Combines empirical linguistic methods with gender studies and cultural studies approaches to analyse intimacy.

Examines how media uses language to represent desire and intimacy in contemporary culture.

Investigates attitudes and assumptions embedded in language surrounding sexual and romantic expression.
