Spaces for Feeling explores how English and Scottish people
experienced sociabilities and socialities from 1650 to 1850, and
investigates their operation through emotional practices and
particular spaces. The collection highlights the forms, practices,
and memberships of these varied spaces for feeling in this two
hundred year period and charts the shifting conceptualisations of
emotions that underpinned them. The authors employ historical,
literary, and visual history approaches to analyse a series of
literary and art works, emerging forms of print media such as
pamphlet propaganda, newspapers, and periodicals, and familial and
personal sources such as letters, in order to tease out how
particular communities were shaped and cohered through distinct
emotional practices in specific spaces of feeling. This collection
studies the function of emotions in group formations in Britain
during a period that has attracted widespread scholarly interest in
the creation and meaning of sociabilities in particular. From clubs
and societies to families and households, essays here examine how
emotional practices could sustain particular associations, create
new social communities and disrupt the capacity of a specific
cohort to operate successfully. This timely collection will be
essential reading for students and scholars of the history of
emotions.
