Rezensionen

'Barclay and Stearns have provided an edition that excels well beyond a summary of the state of the field, as they highlight fresh connections between modern history and the global history of emotions. The consummate introduction may become the standard historiography for the history of emotions and sets up an edition that succeeds through purposeful diversification within each of its multiple themes: global contexts, geographical perspectives, embodiment and place, structures of power, and emotional exchanges.'

Andrew Kettler, Kenyon College, USA





'This is a ground-breaking work that brings together the histories of emotions as a global history. A maturing field of scholarship, the history of emotions has done remarkable work in tracking the development of anger, love, jealousy, pity, happiness and other human (and animal) emotions. This collection of essays takes carefully toll of this work and moves beyond the national and regional boundaries by tracing the makeup and changes of emotions in their linguistic, bodily, and material expressions in global contexts. This highly readable book is a must for advanced undergraduate students as well as graduate students and established scholars of the history of emotions.'
