Emotional Communities in the Early Middle Ages

"Proposing that people lived (and live) in "emotional communities"--Each having its own particular norms of emotional valuation and expression - Barbara H. Rosenwein here discusses some instances from the Early Middle Ages. Drawing on extensive microhistorical research, as well as cognitive and social constructionist theories of the emotions, Rosenwein shows that different emotional communities coexisted, that some were dominant at times, and that religious beliefs affected emotional styles even as those styles helped shape religious expression."--Jacket.
