Historicising heritage and emotions : the affective histories of blood, stone and land

documentary heritage
  • Description

    "Historicising Heritage and Emotions examines how heritage is connected to and between people and places through emotion, in the past and today. Discussion focuses on the categories of blood (families and bloodlines), stone (monuments and memorials), and land (landscape and places imbued with memories). Contributors explore how emotions invest heritage with affective power, and the transformative effects of this power in individual, community and cultural contexts.

    Offering transhistorical and multidisplinary discussion about how we can talk about, discuss, categorise and theorise heritage and emotion, it is valuable for students and scholars interested in heritage, emotions and history."--Provided by publisher
