Reviews

'Emotion, Affective Practices, and the Past in the Present is a welcome addition to the literature about emotion and affect in heritage studies. The contributors set out to deconstruct theoretically how individuals respond when they encounter heritage in its various manifestations, and how they are affected and what they feel. Particularly helpful are those chapters which rely on visitor studies and move beyond the academy into the field to explore how people engage with the past and relate it to the present in an emotional and affective manner. Thus this book provides students and academics alike with useful insights into the ways in which the turn to emotion has engaged scholars of critical heritage studies, and it will be of use to all who wish to develop a greater understanding of heritage and its impact on individuals and society in general.' Sheila Watson, University of Leicester, UK 'The objective of this book is to bring forward emotion and affectivity in museum and heritage institutions and studies. As a result, this collected edition is not only timely, it also covers an essential theme in Heritage Studies that has been largely left aside or remains, at best, an implicit element in many professional and academic works. Simply put, this is a collected edition that should be influential for years to come.' Jonathan Paquette, University of Ottawa, USA
