Juxtaposing artistic and musical representations of the emotions
with medical, philosophical and scientific texts in Western culture
between the Renaissance and the twentieth century, the essays
collected in this volume explore the ways in which emotions have
been variously conceived, configured, represented and harnessed in
relation to broader discourses of control, excess and refinement.
Since the essays explore the interstices between disciplines (e.g.
music and medicine, history of art and philosophy) and thereby
disrupt established frameworks within the histories of art, music
and medicine, traditional narrative accounts are challenged. Here
larger historical forces come into perspective, as these papers
suggest how both artistic and scientific representations of the
emotions have been put to use in political, social and religious
struggles, at a variety of different levels.
