'How do emotions change over time? When is hate honorable? What happens when 'love' is translated into different languages? Such questions are now being addressed by historians who trace how
emotions have been expressed and understood in different cultures throughout history. Doing Emotions History explores the history of feelings such as love, joy, grief, nostalgia as well as a
wide range of others, bringing together the latest and most innovative scholarship on the history of the emotions. Spanning theglobe from Asia and Europe to North America, the book provides a
crucial overview of this emerging discipline. An international group of scholars reviews the field's current status and variations, addresses many of its central debates, provides models and
methods, and proposes an array of possibilities for future research. Emphasizing the field's intersections with anthropology, psychology, sociology, neuroscience, data-mining, and popular
culture, this groundbreaking volume demonstrates the affecting potential of doing emotions history. Contributors are John Corrigan, Pam Epstein, Nicole Eustace, Norman Kutcher, Brent Malin,
Susan Matt, Darrin McMahon, Peter N. Stearns, and Mark Steinberg. '--
