Description
The 'emotional turn' is one of the most significant developments in academic study in recent years and has had a considerable impact on scholarship across the humanities based disciplines, particularly in literature and history. The intent of these three linked sessions is to apply the 'emotional turn' to studies of Medieval Iberia, drawing together scholarship from Hispanists which focuses on the depiction of emotion across a wide range of source material from the period, offering a rich, interdisciplinary approach to the subject in a distinctly Iberian context.
