Abstract
A means for studying the evolution of scientific concepts may be to analyze the shift of meaning of key words over the time. In this paper we made an attempt in this direction by te use of the Corpus Computational Linguistics to stress the similarities and the differences of the lexicon of emotion in two fundamental essays by Charles Darwin and Duchenne (de Boulogne). In this way it will be seen the change from the strictly anatomical approach used by Duchenne to a broader conception, physiological and adaptive in Darwin.File in questo prodotto:
