This four-volume collection of primary sources focuses on the
history of emotions in Europe and its empires between 1517 and
1914. Arranged chronologically, each volume examines the subjects
of the self, family and community, religion, politics and law,
science and philosophy, and art and culture. The collection begins
with the Reformation in 1517 as a key transformative moment in
European history that required people to rethink the self, belief,
and scientific knowledges - all of which shaped and were shaped by
emotion. It ends with WW1, by which point psychology and modern
frameworks for the self had become standard knowledges. In between,
ideas and practices of emotion were not static, and part of the
history charted across these volumes is the making of a new
vocabulary for emotions and the self. Sources include letters,
diaries, legal papers, institutional records, newspapers, science
and philosophical writings, literature and art from a diversity of
voices and perspectives. Accompanied by extensive editorial
commentary, this collection will be of great interest to students
of history and literature.
