In her dissertation "A Linguo-cognitive Analysis of Verbal and Non-verbal Expressions of Emotions (on the material of English)", Dr. Anna Rostomyan discusses the role of the expressions of emotions in communication and their participation in the higher cognitive processes; thus, supporting one of her main hypotheses that emotionality and rationality do not function in separation, but rather represent two polar concepts, which continually interact, intermingling with each other, endorsing and providing information to one another, which altogether shape our actual final perception of the outward reality at hand.Dr. Anna Rostomyan also analyzes diverse linguistic tricks connected with human emotionality from interdisciplinary perspectives by means of providing a well-tailored, detailed and a very comprehensive linguo-cognitive, pragmalinguistic, psychologuistic, neurolinguistic and sociolinguistic analyses.This work encompasses a broad spectrum of discussions on the verbal and non-verbal manifestations of emotions in contemporary English discourse through illustrating extracts taken from modern English fiction and films.At the end of her discussion, the author also puts forward and analyses different expression management techniques of emotions in the process of communication in the English language, which will greatly diminish speech conflict and resultant stress across cultures and situations
