Price range: ₨ 300 through ₨ 650

Body and Force in Music: Metaphoric Constructions in Music Psychology (SEMPRE Studies in The Psychology of Music)

Body and Force in Music: Metaphoric Constructions in Music Psychology is a sophisticated scholarly work that explores how bodily experience and metaphoric thinking shape the way we understand, feel, and interpret music. Published as part of the respected SEMPRE Studies in The Psychology of Music series, this volume bridges cognitive science, music theory, and psychology to explain how listeners conceptualize musical movement, tension, energy, and emotion.

Music is often described using physical and force-related metaphors—melodies “rise” and “fall,” harmonies “push” and “pull,” rhythms “drive” forward, and chords create “tension” and “release.” This book examines how these metaphoric constructions are grounded in embodied cognition—the idea that our physical experiences influence abstract thinking. Drawing on research in music psychology and cognitive linguistics, the volume demonstrates how bodily sensations and spatial understanding shape musical perception.

Key Features:

  • 🎵 Explores embodied cognition in music perception

  • 🧠 Analyzes metaphors of movement, force, and tension in music

  • 📘 Part of the respected SEMPRE Studies series

  • 🔬 Research-based and theoretically rich discussion

  • 🎓 Ideal for advanced students and researchers

  • 🎼 Bridges music theory, psychology, and cognitive science

Body and Force in Music: Metaphoric Constructions in Music Psychology (SEMPRE Studies in The Psychology of Music)

Published as part of the respected SEMPRE Studies in The Psychology of Music series, this volume bridges cognitive science, music theory, and psychology to explain how listeners conceptualize musical movement, tension, energy, and emotion.

Music is often described using physical and force-related metaphors—melodies “rise” and “fall,” harmonies “push” and “pull,” rhythms “drive” forward, and chords create “tension” and “release.” This book examines how these metaphoric constructions are grounded in embodied cognition—the idea that our physical experiences influence abstract thinking. Drawing on research in music psychology and cognitive linguistics, the volume demonstrates how bodily sensations and spatial understanding shape musical perception.

The book provides detailed theoretical discussions supported by empirical research, making it especially valuable for advanced students and researchers. It investigates how listeners mentally simulate movement, force, balance, and resistance when processing musical structures. By analyzing how metaphor operates in musical discourse and perception, the text offers fresh insight into how meaning is constructed in music.

One of the key strengths of this volume is its interdisciplinary approach. It connects psychology, musicology, philosophy, and neuroscience to provide a comprehensive explanation of how music is experienced as dynamic and physical—even though it is an auditory phenomenon. Readers gain a deeper understanding of how emotional responses to music are linked to embodied experiences and cognitive frameworks.

Ideal for postgraduate students, music psychologists, music theorists, cognitive scientists, and researchers in the arts and humanities, Body and Force in Music serves as both an academic reference and a groundbreaking exploration of musical meaning.
