Early modern anger is informed by fundamental paradoxes: qualified
as a sin since the Middle Ages, it was still attributed a valuable
function in the service of restoring social order; at the same
time, the fight against one's own anger was perceived as
exceedingly difficult. And while it was seen as essential for the
defence of an individual's social position, it was at the same time
considered a self-destructive force. The contributions in this
volume converge in the aim of mapping out the discursive networks
in which anger featured and how they all generated their own
version, assessment, and semantics of anger. These discourses
include philosophy and theology, poetry, medicine, law, political
theory, and art. Contributors: David M. Barbee, Maria Berbara,
Tamas Demeter, Jan-Frans van Dijkhuizen, Betul Dilmac, Karl
Enenkel, Tilman Haug, Michael Krewet, Johannes F. Lehmann, John
Nassichuk, Jan Papy, Christian Peters, Bernd Roling, Paolo
Santangelo, Barbara Sasse Tateo, Anita Traninger, Jakob Willis, and
Zeynep Yelce.
