Metonymies and metaphors of sadness in the Old English vocabulary
The aim of this paper is to explore the predominant metonymic and metaphoric conceptualizations of sadness in the Old English
period. To this end, the Old English expressions for emotional distress recorded in The Old English Thesaurus and old English dictionaries have been analyzed. Taking as a starting point the experiential grounding of emotion conceptualization, we first
present experimental evidence in support of the role of somato-behavioral reactions in emotion recognition, affective state
induction and emotional information processing and interpretation, and review the most common metonymic and metaphoric expressions
for sadness in Modern English. Next, we analyze the Old English vocabulary for sadness and the interplay between embodiment and
culture in the conceptualization and linguistic description of emotional distress. Such analysis makes it clear that in ancient
times, as in present day English, sadness and psychological distress were also conceptualized in terms of unpleasant physical
conditions such as illness, cold, darkness or heaviness. Consequently, a long-term diachronic trend in the conceptualization of
sadness can be traced even though its linguistic realization and motivation have varied through time.
