How to Do Things with Affects develops affect as a highly
productive concept for both cultural analysis and the reading of
aesthetic forms. Shifting the focus from individual experiences and
the human interiority of personal emotions and feelings toward the
agency of cultural objects, social arrangements, and aesthetic
matter, the book examines how affects operate and are triggered by
aesthetic forms, media events, and cultural practices.
Transgressing disciplinary boundaries and emphasizing close
reading, the collected essays explore manifold affective
transmissions and resonances enacted by modernist literary works,
contemporary visual arts, horror and documentary films, museum
displays, and animated pornography, with a special focus on how
they impact on political events, media strategies, and social
situations. Contributors: Ernst van Alphen, Mieke Bal, Maria
Boletsi, Eugenie Brinkema, Pietro Conte, Anne Fleig, Bernd
Herzogenrath, Tomas Jirsa, Matthias Luthjohann, Susanna Paasonen,
Christina Riley, Jan Slaby, Eliza Steinbock, Christiane Voss.
