What new insights become available for historians when emotions are
included as an analytical category? This volume of Osiris explores
the historical interrelationships between science and its cultures
and cultures of emotions. It argues that a dialogue between the
history of emotions and the history of science leads to a
rethinking of our categories of analysis, our subjects, and our
periodizations. The ten case studies in the volume explore these
possibilities and interrelationships across North America and
Europe, between the twelfth and the twentieth centuries, in a
variety of scientific disciplines. They analyze how scientific
communities approached and explained the functions of emotions; how
the concomitant positioning of emotions in or between
body-mind-intersubjectivity took place; how emotions infused
practices and how practices generated emotions; and, ultimately,
how new and emerging identities of and criteria for emotions
created new knowledge, new technologies, and new subjectivities.
