Description

The Routledge History of Emotions in the Modern World brings together a diverse array of scholars to offer an overview of the current and emerging scholarship of emotions in the modern world.

Across thirty-six chapters, this work enters the field of emotion from a range of angles.

Named emotions – love, anger, fear – highlight how particular categories have been deployed to make sense of feeling and their evolution over time.

Geographical perspectives provide access to the historiographies of regions that are less well-covered by English-language sources, opening up global perspectives and new literatures.

Key thematic sections are designed to intersect with critical historiographies, demonstrating the value of an emotions perspective to a range of areas.

Topical sections direct attention to the role of emotions in relations of power, to intimate lives and histories of place, as products of exchanges across groups, and as deployed by new technologies and medias.

The concepts of globalisation and modernity run through the volume, acting as foils for comparison and analytical tools. The Routledge History of Emotions in the Modern World is the perfect resource for all students and scholars interested in the history of emotions across the world from 1700.
