Book Synopsis


Trade Review
As a literary-historical study of postwar Germany, this book makes a substantial contribution to German Studies, offering a much-needed critique of ‘melancholic scholarship’ in favour of work that wrestles with the often complex emotionality of the postwar era."" - German History

""An Emotional State thus innovatively presents highly productive building blocks toward a complexified historical study of emotion"" - The Germanic Review

""Offers a truly original, even pathbreaking, contribution to the study of postwar West German culture, while making a very important intervention in the theoretical debate on the study of emotions. Its potential audience includes not only historians and literary critics but the rapidly growing, strongly interdisciplinary community of ‘emotion scholars"" - Frank Biess, University of California, San Diego.
