Emotions have increasingly attracted the attention of the sciences
and academia. The topic is all the more timely since we have
witnessed a global trend towards highly emotionalized discourses
across societies and religions. Discourses are less guided by
rational arguments and “facts”. Instead, narratives, sometimes
manipulative, influence the thoughts and activi-ties of our
societies. In this context, the authoritative texts of the
monotheistic religions are experiencing a renaissance. Tanach,
Bible and Qur’an do not only “emotionalize”, they also offer
ancient concepts of emotions which affect the present. This book
brings the interdependencies of antiquity and (post)modernity into
an interdisci-plinary discussion. How should we understand feelings
at all? This book explores the ap-proaches to emotions as portrayed
and understood in various sources and disciplines. The contributors
share their perspectives on methodological questions concerning
research on the emotions. Scholars in religious studies and
theology from different traditions—Jewish, Christian,
Islamic—enter into dialogue with other disciplines, such as
psychology, literary studies, sociology, cultural studies,
philosophy, and historiography.
