Reviews

"""The editors set themselves an ambitious undertaking: to provide further insights, in the form of an anthology, into the “vast and fascinating subject” of emotions. This volume does not only meet our expectations but goes well beyond them. Both editors and contributors have adopted a multifaceted approach, which makes it suitable both for experts and non-experts. (...) The papers in this book all contribute to the volume’s purpose: to honor De Jong’s career and enhance her studies. Although a lengthy read, more than 750 pages in total, the text runs smoothly; the wise chronological division adopted by the editors gently walks readers through centuries, without overwhelming them."" Giulia Maria Paoletti in BMCR2023.07.04"
