Description

Academic résumés tell us as much about the person as they do about their subject and its history. Ute Frevert gave important impetus to social and gender history through trend-setting publications. Early on, she also worked out the history-forming power of individual feelings and located them in their historical ties. Today the historian is considered to be the most influential representative of a new field of research in this country, but also far beyond the German linguistic borders: the history of emotions in modern times. This volume brings together 22 texts: programmatic essays that paved the way, stimulating individual studies and previously unpublished lectures that demonstrate the appeal and value of the history of emotions. In an award-winning linguistic style, both elegant and precise, the selection presents a carefully composed synthesis of three decades that testifies to the power of feelings in history.
