    No full text
    PThis paper examines how two trips convey an image of "longing" in three works by peers of Oxford University in the 20th century: "Lord of the Rings" by J. R. R. Tolkien and "The Chronicles of Narnia" and "Till We Have Faces" by C. S. Lewis. It explores the warnings, directed at modern readers, that are found embedded in their shared hopes and discouragement.departmental bulletin pape

    Neural correlates of processing valence and arousal in affective words

    No full text
    Psychological frameworks conceptualize emotion along 2 dimensions, "valence" and "arousal." Arousal invokes a single axis of intensity increasing from neutral to maximally arousing. Valence can be described variously as a bipolar continuum, as independent positive and negative dimensions, or as hedonic value (distance from neutral). In this study, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging to characterize neural activity correlating with arousal and with distinct models of valence during presentation of affective word stimuli. Our results extend observations in the chemosensory domain suggesting a double dissociation in which subregions of orbitofrontal cortex process valence, whereas amygdala preferentially processes arousal. In addition, our data support the physiological validity of descriptions of valence along independent axes or as absolute distance from neutral but fail to support the validity of descriptions of valence along a bipolar continuum
