PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Katie Barclay is Deputy-Director of the ARC Centre of Excellence in the History of Emotions and Associate Professor in History at the University of Adelaide. She writes on the history of emotions, family and gender, and with Andrew Lynch and Giovanni Taratino edits Emotions: History, Culture, Society. Peter N. Stearns is University Professor of History at George Mason University. He has written widely on the history of emotions, with books including American Cool and Shame: A Brief History. He regularly teaches an undergraduate course on emotions history, and has collaborated with a number of students on research projects in the field.
‘Barclay and Stearns have provided an edition that excels well beyond a summary of the state of the field, as they highlight fresh connections between modern history and the global history of emotions. The consummate introduction may become the standard historiography for the history of emotions and sets up an edition that succeeds through purposeful diversification within each of its multiple themes: global contexts, geographical perspectives, embodiment and place, structures of power, and emotional exchanges.’ Andrew Kettler, Kenyon College, USA ‘This is a ground-breaking work that brings together the histories of emotions as a global history. A maturing field of scholarship, the history of emotions has done remarkable work in tracking the development of anger, love, jealousy, pity, happiness and other human (and animal) emotions. This collection of essays takes carefully toll of this work and moves beyond the national and regional boundaries by tracing the makeup and changes of emotions in their linguistic, bodily, and material expressions in global contexts. This highly readable book is a must for advanced undergraduate students as well as graduate students and established scholars of the history of emotions.’ Heikki Lempa, Moravian University, USA
