State of the Field: The History of Emotions

Abstract: Emotions have appeared in histories, and associated writings, for centuries. History writing has sometimes valued the emotional; in eighteenth-century Europe, the centrality of the idea of sympathetic exchange to communication ensured that many historians of the period sought to produce feelings in their readers. 1 The emotions of historical subjects too have long been of interest. For some early twentieth-century theorists, often building on the stadial histories of human development of the eighteenth centur… Show more

“…This research demonstrates how mundane aspects of our daily lives are entangled with macro social structures by illuminating how emotions circulate to create collective identities; construct geographies of difference, exclusion and oppression; and function as tools of governance (Bondi et al, 2005;Hochschild, 2016;Ioanide, 2015;Jupp et al, 2017;Padley & Gökarıksel, 2021). Shown to play a role in nation-building, the processes of modernity and globalization, economic systems and the construction of historical knowledge, critical analysis of emotion deepens our understanding of how power operates (Barclay, 2021;Eustace, 2008;Hutchinson, 2016;Illouz, 2007).…”

“…In his praxeological approach, Reckwitz conceptualises affect as a bodily sensation arising as a space is appropriated and in dialogue with the unique experiences of an individual. As a result of this dialogue, one building can produce several different atmospheres depending on who is visiting (e.g., Anderson, 2009; Finlayson, 2012; Michels, 2015).…”

“…As modern urban historians, we concur with spatial theorists that the built environment, infused as it is with emotional meaning, holds valuable and necessary keys to understanding religious, ethnic, social, political, and gendered minorities' navigation of and agency in urban landscapes (e.g., Gunn, 2017;Lefebvre, 2009;Nic Ghabhann, 2018;Tuan, 1990). For this, the established field of history of emotions provides a broad framework and multiple concepts for analysing continuity and change of power relations, social control, and societal norms, which are not only spatially specific but also shaped by spatial discourses (e.g., Barclay, 2021;Reddy, 2001;Scheer, 2012;Seymour, 2020).…”

“…Certain historical fields, such as the histories of emotions and of selfhood, invoke childhood for more particular reasons, perceiving natural links between childhood and 'emotional socialisation' within the family. 32 But the risk here is that children's experiences are only ascribed historical meaning insofar as they affect the adults these children will become. In Karen Sánchez-Eppler's words, children are seen only as 'objects of socialisation' rather than as 'forces of socialisation'.…”
