Embodied Emotions A Naturalist Approach to a Normative Phenomenon

Embodied Emotions A Naturalist Approach to a Normative Phenomenon

In this book Rebekka Hufendiek explores emotions as embodied action-oriented representations providing a non-cognitivist theory of emotions that accounts for their normative dimensions. Embodied Emotions focuses not only on the bodily reactions involved in emotions but also on the environment within which emotions are embedded and on the social character of this environment its ontological constitution and the way it scaffolds both the development of particular emotion types and the unfolding of individual emotional episodes. In addition it provides a critical review and appraisal of current empirical studies mainly in psychophysiology and developmental psychology which are relevant to discussions about whether emotions are embodied as well as socially embedded. The theory that Hufendiek puts forward denies the distinction between basic and higher cognitive emotions: all emotions are embodied action-oriented representations. This approach can account for the complex normative structure of emotions and shares the advantages of cognitivist accounts of emotions without sharing their problems. Embodied Emotions makes an original contribution to ongoing debates on the normative aspects of emotions and will be of interest to philosophers working on emotions embodied cognition and situated cognition as well as neuroscientists or psychologists who study emotions and are interested in placing their own work within a broader theoretical framework. | Embodied Emotions A Naturalist Approach to a Normative Phenomenon

The Political Sociology of Emotions Essays on Trauma and Ressentiment

The Political Sociology of Emotions Essays on Trauma and Ressentiment

The Political Sociology of Emotions articulates the political sociology of emotions as a sub-field of emotions sociology in relation to cognate disciplines and sub-disciplines. Far from reducing politics to affectivity the political sociology of emotions is coterminous with political sociology itself plus the emotive angle added in the investigation of its traditional and more recent areas of research. The worldwide predominance of affective anti-politics (e. g. the securitization of immigration policies reactionism terrorism competitive authoritarianism nationalism and populism etc. ) makes the political sociology of emotions increasingly necessary in making the prospects of democracy and republicanism in the twenty-first century more intelligible. Through a weak constructionist theoretical perspective the book shows the utility of this new sub-field by addressing two central themes: trauma and ressentiment. Trauma is considered as a key cultural-political phenomenon of our times evoking both negative and positive emotions; ressentiment is a pertaining individual and collective political emotion allied to insecurities and moral injuries. In tandem they constitute fundamental experiences of late modern times. The value of the political sociology of emotions is revealed in the analysis of civil wars cultural traumas the politics of pity the suffering of distant others in the media populism and national identities on both sides of the Atlantic. | The Political Sociology of Emotions Essays on Trauma and Ressentiment

Emotions of Menace and Enchantment Disgust Horror Awe and Fascination

Emotions of Menace and Enchantment Disgust Horror Awe and Fascination

Emotions of Menace and Enchantment examines four pivotal human emotions. It explores what defines these emotions how they interact and how they impact the experience of self-boundary. All four feelings speak to the boundary around the self to whether we stiffen that boundary relax it or worry about its fraying. Psychoanalysis has looked closely at conflicts that human beings experience but has paid relatively less attention to the specific emotions through which conflict is known and managed. The disgust emotion is unique in operating like a gatekeeper that manages what approaches us closely. Disgust appears prominently in our relationship with the physical world but surprisingly is just as common in the world of politics. It moves people to action including deeds of great violence. Horror occurs when we feel invaded and altered by something that leads to profound insecurity. Human beings behaving inhumanly is one common source of horror. While disgust is a moral emotion horror makes no judgments but speaks to the misery of being unsafe. Awe opens the self to the outside world and creates moments that sustain us through times of stress. Fascination also involves openness but its characteristic attitude and attention shows its differences from awe. It forms the foundation for deep learning. All four emotions find their way into psychopathology; for example fascination plays a role in addiction and awe in masochism and cult formation. Emotions of Menace and Enchantment will help mental health professionals in psychoanalysis psychotherapy psychiatry and social work to better parse clinical encounters with the four emotions and to think as well about defensive patterns aimed at blunting contact with them. It will engage anyone interested in examining the roles these emotions play in politics societal violence addictions and everyday joys and suffering. | Emotions of Menace and Enchantment Disgust Horror Awe and Fascination

Intersemiotic Perspectives on Emotions Translating across Signs Bodies and Values

This edited volume explores emotion and its translations through the global world from a variety of different perspectives as a personal socio- cultural ideological ethical and political even business investment in the latest phases of globalisation. Emotions are powerful in engaging or disengaging individuals communities the masses peoples and nations with distinct linguistic and cultural backgrounds for good but also for evil. All depends on how emotions are interpreted that is translated in “words” or in “facts” in any case in “signs”.

This book follows a sociology of body/emotions approaches within which sensations emotions and sensibilities are part of dialectical social structuration process. The book proposes love not only as an effect or trait of a society but also as an analytical tool for better understanding the processes of social structuring.

Shakespeare in Hate Emotions Passions Selfhood

Shakespeare in Hate Emotions Passions Selfhood

Hate malice rage and enmity: what would Shakespeare’s plays be without these demonic unruly passions? This book studies how the tirades and unrestrained villainy of Shakespeare’s art explode the decorum and safety of our sanitized lives and challenge the limits of our selfhood. Everyone knows Shakespeare to be the exemplary poet of love but how many celebrate his clarifying expressions of hatred? How many of us do not at some time feel that we have come away from his plays transformed by hate and washed clean by savage indignation? Saval fills the great gap in the interpretation of Shakespeare’s unsocial feelings. The book asserts that emotions as Aristotle claims in the Rhetoric are connected to judgments. Under such a view hatred and rage in Shakespeare cease to be a blinding of judgment or a loss of reason but become claims upon the world that can be evaluated and interpreted. The literary criticism of anger and hate provides an alternative vision of the experience of Shakespeare’s theater as an intensification of human experience that takes us far beyond criticism’s traditional contexts of character culture and ethics. The volume which is alive to the judgmental character of emotions transforms the way we see the rancorous passions and the disorderly and disobedient demands of anger and hatred. Above all it reminds us why Shakespeare is the exemplary creator of that rare yet pleasurable thing: a good hater. | Shakespeare in Hate Emotions Passions Selfhood

Historicising Heritage and Emotions The Affective Histories of Blood Stone and Land

Historicising Heritage and Emotions The Affective Histories of Blood Stone and Land

Historicising Heritage and Emotions examines how heritage is connected to and between people and places through emotion both in the past and today. Discussion is focused on the overlapping categories of blood (families and bloodlines) stone (monuments and memorials) and land (landscape and places imbued with memories) with the contributing authors exploring the ways in which emotions invest heritage with affective power and the transformative effects of this power in individual community and cultural contexts. The 13 chapters that make up the volume take examples from the premodern and modern eras and from two connected geographical regions the United Kingdom and Australia and the Pacific. Each chapter seeks to identify historicise and contextualise the processes of heritage and the emotional regimes at play locating the processes within longer historical and transnational genealogies and critically appraising them as part of broader cultural currents. Theoretically grounded in new approaches to the history of emotions and critical heritage studies the analysis challenges the traditional scholarly focus on heritage in its modern forms offering multifaceted premodern and modern case studies that demonstrate heritage and emotion to have complex and vibrant histories. Offering transhistorical and multidisciplinary discussion around the ways in which we can talk about discuss categorise and theorise heritage and emotion in different historical contexts Historicising Heritage and Emotions is a valuable resource for students and scholars interested in heritage emotions and history. | Historicising Heritage and Emotions The Affective Histories of Blood Stone and Land
