Description<\/strong><\/p>\nThis book introduces students and professional historians to the main areas of concern in the history of emotions. It discusses how the emotions intersect with other lines of historical research relating to power, practice, society and morality. Addressing criticism from within and without the discipline of history, the book offers a rigorous defence of this new approach, demonstrating its potential centrality to historiographical practice, as well as the importance of this kind of historical work for our general understanding of the human brain and the meaning of human experience.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Reviews<\/strong><\/p>\n‘To the student of neuroscience, the professor in politics, the public policy-maker, this book broadcasts a signal from the rocketship of the History of Emotions: we are here, and we have a lot to talk to you about.’
\nCarly Osborn, The University of Adelaide, Emotions: History, culture, society 2 (2018)<\/p>\n
‘Boddice’s book provides a rich and thorough summary and analysis of the history of emotions, useful for students and scholars alike. [.] This book does not only provide a highly useful and detailed guide to the history of emotions, but also offers insights into international working, practices of teaching, and to thinking further about the dynamics of power and knowledge in interdisciplinary work.’
\nJennifer Crane, University of Warwick, Social History of Medicine<\/p>\n
