Although historians have always talked about how people felt in the past, it is only in the last two decades that they have found systematic and well-grounded ways to treat the topic.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Rosenwein and Cristiani begin with the science of emotion, explaining what contemporary psychologists and neuropsychologists think emotions are. They continue with the major early, foundational approaches to the history of emotions, and they treat in depth new work that emphasizes the role of the body and its gestures. Along the way, they discuss how ideas about emotions and their history have been incorporated into modern literature and technology, from children's books to videogames.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Students, teachers, and anyone else interested in emotions and how to think about them historically will find this book to be an indispensable and fascinating guide not only to the past but to what may lie ahead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eList of Plates and Boxed Text\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePreface and Acknowledgements\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Science\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Approaches\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Bodies\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Futures\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNotes\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSelected Reading\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eIndex\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: History [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on History\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22History%20%5BHB%5D%22\"\u003eHB\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Polity","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52441782026520,"sku":"9781509508495","price":39.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781509508495.jpg?v=1785024809","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/what-is-the-history-of-emotions-hardback-9781509508495","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
