Humorality in Early Modern Art, Material Culture, and Performance
seeks to address the representation of the humors from
non-traditional, abstract, and materialist perspectives,
considering the humorality of everyday objects, activities, and
performance within the early modern period. To uncover how
humoralism shapes textual, material, and aesthetic encounters for
contemporary subjects in a broader sense than previous studies have
pursued, the project brings together three principal areas of
investigation: how the humoral body was evoked and embodied within
the space of the early modern stage; how the materiality of an
object can be understood as constructed within humoral discourse;
and how individuals' activities and pursuits can connote specific
practices informed by humoralism. Across the book, contributors
explore how diverse media and cultural practices are informed by
humoralism. As a whole, the collection investigates alternative
humoralities in order to illuminate both early modern works of art
as well as the cultural moments of their production.
