This study addresses two desiderata of historical emotion research:
reflecting on the interdependence of textual functions and the
representation of emotions, and acknowledging the interdependence
of studies on the premodern and modern periods in the history of
emotion. Contemporary research on the history of emotion is
characterised by a proliferation of studies on very different eras,
authors, themes, texts, and aspects. The enthusiasm and confidence
with which situations, actions, and interactions involving emotions
in history are discovered, however, has led to overly direct
attempts to access the represented objects
(emotions/feelings/affects); as a result, too little attention has
been paid to the conditions and functions of their representations.
That is why this study engages with the emotion research of
historians from an unashamedly philological perspective. Such an
approach provides, among other things, insights into the varied,
often contradictory, observations that can be made about the
history of emotion in modernity and premodernity.
