A distinguished international cast of 17 authors deploys the methodologies of Classics, Byzantine Studies, and emotion history to uncover the complex interactions between ancient and Byzantine emotionology. Its wide-ranging chapters shed new light on the Byzantine emotional universe and its impact on medieval and early modern culture and explore the reception and influence of ancient emotion concepts in Byzantine sources. Textual sources are given due prominence, but the volume also investigates wider phenomena such as visual and material culture, performance, ritual, and the creation of emotional landscapes.Survey of contentsIntroduction Douglas Cairns: Emotions through Time? – Douglas Cairns: Emotion Research in Classics – Martin Hinterberger/Aglae Pizzone: Research on Emotions in the Byzantine World – Douglas Cairns/Martin Hinterberger/Aglae Pizzone: Chapter summaries I: Philosophy and religion Andrea Capra: Philosophy as a Chain of 'Poetic' Emotions?
