The period 1300-1600 CE was one of intense and far-reaching
emotional realignments in European culture. New desires and
developments in politics, religion, philosophy, the arts and
literature fundamentally changed emotional attitudes to history,
creating the sense of a rupture from the immediate past. In this
volatile context, cultural products of all kinds offered competing
objects of love, hate, hope and fear. Art, music, dance and song
provided new models of family affection, interpersonal intimacy,
relationship with God, and gender and national identities. The
public and private spaces of courts, cities and houses shaped the
practices and rituals in which emotional lives were expressed and
understood. Scientific and medical discoveries changed emotional
relations to the cosmos, the natural world and the body. Both
continuing traditions and new sources of cultural authority made
emotions central to the concept of human nature, and involved them
in every aspect of existence.
