Sixteenth Century Journal 'This collection of essays is an important addition to a growing body of emotion historiography. It is a broad and eclectic work, addressing the articulation and treatment of affect in western art, music and medicine between the fourteenth and twentieth centuries. Yet despite this diversity it remains coherent as a collection, being well-ordered, well-edited, and contemplative about its role in the production of histories of emotions.'
