  • 'Translating' Emotions: Nationalism in Contemporary Greek Cinema
    ‘Reading’ and ‘Translating’ Emotions: Nationalism in Contemporary Greek Cinema by Sophia Sakellis A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (Research) Department of Modern Greek and Byzantine Studies The Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences University of Sydney October 2016 ABSTRACT This study explores emotions related to nationalism, and their manifestations in contemporary Greek cinema. It also investigates the reasons and mechanisms giving rise to nationalism, and how it is perceived, expressed and ‘translated’ into other cultures. A core focus within the nationalist paradigm is the theme of national identity, with social exclusion ideologies such as racism operating in the background. Two contemporary Greek films have been chosen, which deal with themes of identity, nationalism, xenophobia, anger and fear in different contexts. The study is carried out by drawing on the theories of emotion, language, translation and cinema, to analyse the visual and audio components of the two films and ascertain their translatability to an Australian audience. Both films depict a similar milieu to each other, which is plagued by the lingering nature of all the unresolved political and national issues faced by the Greek nation, in addition to the economic crisis, a severe refugee crisis, and externally imposed policy issues, as well as numerous other social problems stemming from bureaucracy, red tape and widespread state-led corruption, which have resulted in massive rates of unemployment and financial hardship that have befallen a major part of the population. In spite of their topicality, the themes are universal and prevalent in a number of countries to varying degrees, as cultural borders become increasingly integrated, both socially and economically.

Box 1026 SE-551 11 Jönköping Tel.: +46 36 15 77 00 E-mail: [email protected] www.jibs.se Emotions in Motion - The Strategic Leader in a Radical Change Process JIBS Dissertation Series No. 012 © 2002 Ethel Brundin and Jönköping International Business School Ltd. ISSN 1403-0470 ISBN 91-89164-32-6 Printed by Ark Tryckaren AB, 2002 Preface Some twenty years ago, I started my own company together with two former colleagues. There was nothing spectacular about this, even if at the time it was considered somewhat different for a young woman to do such a thing and also act as the managing director. However, the spectacular thing was that in forming this company we tried to do so by conforming to rules, regulations and current standards – but there was a lot of hassle on a variety of issues to come to an agreement. In those negotiations we all showed, felt and expressed a good deal of emotions. However, there seemed to be a tacit agreement that those emotions were not to affect our decisions about the structure and running of the business. At least we pretended that this was the case. As a professional consultant within the field of strategic and organisational change, I often came across a great deal of emotions among strategic leaders, managers and other employees. This was even more explicit in different change processes of the companies. Nevertheless, emotions were something one tried to exclude from strategic leadership.

    Psychological, emotional, linguistic and cultural changes following migration The case of Italian migrants living in English-speaking countries Alessandra Panicacci Department of Applied Lingusitics and Communication Birkbeck College, University of London Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 1 A te caro nonno Livio, che mi hai trasmesso l’amore per la conoscenza e la curiosita` di scoprire il mondo e a te, Momo 2 Declaration I hereby declare that this submission is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it contains no material previously published or written by another person, except where explicitly defined in the acknowledgements, no material which to a substantial extent has been submitted for award of any other degree or diploma of a university or other institution of higher learning. Word count (exclusive of abstract, index, acknowledgements, appendices and bibliography): 97.805 words including footnotes Signed Date 3 Abstract The main argument of this dissertation is that languages and cultures overlap in the psyche of individuals. Participants are 468 Italian migrants residing in English-speaking countries. Specifically, the purpose is to investigate how language choice for expressing emotions, self-reported language dominance and self-perceptions when using the local language relate to migrants’ acculturation attitudes and personality. The analysis has been conducted using a mixed-method. Data has been gathered through a web-questionnaire and 5 follow-up interviews have been conducted in order to explore possible causes of statistical patterns. The web-survey was a combination of the Bilingualism and Emotions Questionnaire, the Vancouver Index of Acculturation and the Multicultural Personality Questionnaire.

  • The Emotions
    The Emotions Biology, Language and Culture Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Philosophy) Department of Philosophy University of Sheffield, UK Angela Florence Bird March 2014 i Abstract Philosophers, and theorists in other disciplines, have disagreed over the character, function and mechanisms of emotions. Amongst the persistent issues that have arisen is the question of what exactly emotions are. Are they a vivid perceptual awareness of physiological processes? Evaluative judgments? Dispositions? Neurophysiological states? Or perhaps an aggregate of some or all of the above? Typically, theorists who study the emotions have tended to divide into two camps. On the one hand there are those who adopt a broadly biological / adaptationist perspective, which emphasises the corporeal nature of emotions. On the other side of the divide are those who adopt a socio-constructivist perspective, which emphasises the cognitive nature of emotions. Proponents of the biological stance have tended to favour universal, basic emotions whilst socio-constructivists tend to favour the more exotic. In support of the latter approach a significant literature has emerged from ethnography, anthropology and cognitive linguistics. This literature adopts a “lexicocentric” perspective on the emotions. The biological/adaptationist perspective seems to capture something important and right about the essential nature of emotions. However, the aim of my thesis is to demonstrate that the basic emotions theory, as characterised by Ekman, is weakened by its failure to pay attention to, and fully to engage with, the literature regarding the effect of language on our emotional landscape, an area which has ostensibly been the domain of the social constructionist.

In a comprehensive review of the existing social scientific literature, we demonstrate that no consistent relationship between guilt and shame, on the one hand, and individualism and collectivism, on the other, has yet been established. To move this research area forward, we apply a new two-dimensional, quaternary perspective to both guilt/shame and cultural orientation. Specifically, both evaluative and behavioral dimensions of guilt and shame are considered using the Guilt and Shame Proneness scale (GASP;

  • Is the Appropriateness of Emotions Culture- Dependent? the Relevance of Social Meaning
    Journal of Social Ontology 2018; 4(1): 67–92 Article Anna Welpinghus Is the Appropriateness of Emotions Culture- Dependent? The Relevance of Social Meaning https://doi.org/10.1515/jso-2016-0024 Abstract: This paper contributes to the question to what extent the socio-cultural context is relevant for the appropriateness of emotions, while appropriateness of an emotion means that the emotion entails a correct, or adequate, evaluation of its object. In a first step, two adequacy conditions for theories of emotions are devel- oped: the first condition ensures that the socio-cultural context is not neglected: theories must allow for the fact that appropriateness often depends on the social meaning of the emotion’s particular object. The second condition rules out implau- sible forms of cultural determinism. In a second step, an account that meets both conditions is presented: the Acceptance within Social Context account. Keywords: Emotions and values; Emotions and culture; Collective acceptance; Anger; Infidelity. 1 Introduction Emotions are typically directed at a particular intentional object. We represent this object in a specific evaluative light when having an emotion directed at it. This fact yields an appropriateness condition for emotions: the emotion is appro- priate if and only if the object possesses the evaluative property in question. So far this is common ground within the philosophy of emotions. While there has been quite a bit of work on the question of how emotions represent these evaluative properties, the role of socio-cultural factors for the appropriateness of emotions has received little systematic treatment and is not well understood.

  • A Cross-Cultural Investigation of the Vocal Correlates of Emotion
    A cross-cultural investigation of the vocal correlates of emotion Alison A. Tickle A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Education, Communication and Language Sciences Newcastle University March 2015 Declaration of originality The material presented in this thesis is the original work of the candidate except as otherwise acknowledged. It has not been submitted previously in part or whole, for any award, at any university, at any other time. This copy has been supplied on the understanding that it is copyright material and use thereof requires proper acknowledgement. The right of Alison A. Tickle to be identified as author of this work has been asserted by her in accordance with the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. ii Abstract Universal and culture-specific properties of the vocal communication of human emotion are investigated in this balanced study focussing on encoding and decoding of Happy, Sad, Angry, Fearful and Calm by English and Japanese participants (eight female encoders for each culture, and eight female and eight male decoders for each culture). Previous methodologies and findings are compared. This investigation is novel in the design of symmetrical procedures to facilitate cross-cultural comparison of results of decoding tests and acoustic analysis; a simulation/self-induction method was used in which participants from both cultures produced, as far as possible, the same pseudo- utterances. All emotions were distinguished beyond chance irrespective of culture, except for Japanese participants’ decoding of English Fearful, which was decoded at a level borderline with chance. Angry and Sad were well-recognised, both in-group and cross- culturally and Happy was identified well in-group.

  • The Expression, Experience, and Social Consequences of Guilt: a Cross-Cultural Study
    The expression, experience, and social consequences of guilt: A cross-cultural study Eglantine Julle-Danière Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Portsmouth. September 2019 The face is a picture of the mind Cicero (46, BCE) Abstract Guilt arises when someone feels s/he did something wrong; it is classified as a moral, self- conscious emotion and is one of the most social emotions that people experience throughout life. A facial expression of guilt may have evolved in humans to indicate one’s willingness to make amends. In this thesis, I investigate the form and social value of facial signals associated with guilt. First, I explored the facial signals reliably associated with guilt, using a bottom-up approach, and examined the facial movements associated with the perception of guilt. I found that self-reported guilt was associated with upper lip movement and neck touching, but the perception of guilt was associated with frowning and face touching. Second, I considered the influence of contextual information and methodology on the perception of guilt. The study revealed that the context helped the interpretation of a facial expression of guilt. However, people did not reliably identify a facial signal of guilt when using emotion or action tendency labels, but did so using dimensional ratings to a certain extent. Third, I explored the tendency people have to mislabel facial displays of guilt by looking at the eye fixation patterns. I found that ‘guilt’ facial expressions were examined similarly to basic emotion displays and this could indicate that the emotional display of guilt was perceived as a unique mix of primary emotions.
