Focusing specifically on the premodern cognates of 'affect' or 'affection' (such as \u003ci\u003eaffectus\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eaffectio\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eaffeccioun\u003c\/i\u003e, etc.), an international team of scholars explores the cultural and intellectual contexts in which emotion was discussed before the term 'emotion' itself came into widespread use. By tracing the history of key terms and concepts associated with what we identify as 'emotions' today, the volume offers a first-time critical foundation for understanding pre- and early modern emotions discourse, charts continuities and changes across cultures, time periods, genres, and languages, and helps contextualize modern shifts in the understanding of emotions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Juanita Ruys\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367086026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367086022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/05\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 262\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Juanita Ruys","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48742241206527,"sku":"9780367086022","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/before-emotion-juanita-ruys-9780367086022","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
