About This Book

Emotion Theory: The Routledge Comprehensive Guide is the first interdisciplinary reference resource which authoritatively takes stock of the progress made both in the philosophy of emotions and in the affective sciences from Ancient Greece to today. A two-volume landmark publication, it provides an overview of emotion theory unrivaled in terms of its comprehensiveness, accessibility and systematicity.

Comprising 62 chapters by 101 leading emotion theorists in philosophy, classics, psychology, biology, psychiatry, neuroscience and sociology, the collection is organized as follows:

Volume I:

Part I: History of Emotion Theory (10 chapters)

Part II: Contemporary Theories of Emotions (10 chapters)

Part III: The Elements of Emotion Theory (7 chapters)

Volume II:

Part IV: Nature and Functions of 35 Specific Emotions (22 chapters)

Part V: Major Challenges Facing Emotion Theory (13 chapters)

  • Special Elicitors of Emotions
  • Emotions and Their Relations to Other Elements of Mental Architecture
  • Emotions in Children, Animals, and Groups
  • Normative Aspects of Emotions

Most of the major themes of contemporary emotion theory are covered in their historical, philosophical, and scientific dimensions. This collection will be essential reading for students and researchers in philosophy, psychology, neuroscience, sociology, anthropology, political science, and history for decades to come.
