In The Navigation of Feeling: A Framework for the History of Emotions, William M. Reddy offers a new theory of emotions which both critiques and expands upon recent research in the fields of anthropology and psychol- ogy. Exploring the links between emotion and cognition, between culture and emotional expression, Reddy applies this theory of emotions to the processes of history. He demonstrates how emotions change over time, how emotions have an important impact on the course of events, and how different social orders either facilitate or constrain emotional life. In an investigation of Revolutionary France, where sentimentalism in literature and philosophy had promised a new and unprecedented kind of emotional liberty, Reddy’s theory of emotions and historical change is successfully put to the test.
