Managing emotion in Byzantium: Passions, Affects and Imaginings
L. :
Routledge, 2022.
Under the general editorship: M. Mullett, S. A. Harvey
Byzantinists entered the study of emotion with Henry Maguire’s ground-breaking article on sorrow, published in 1977. Since then, classicists and western medievalists have developed new ways of understanding how emotional communities work and where the ancients’ concepts of emotion differ from our own, and Byzantinists have begun to consider emotions other than sorrow. It is time to look at what is distinctive about Byzantine emotion.
This volume is the first to look at the constellation of Byzantine emotions. Originating at an international colloquium at Dumbarton Oaks, these papers address issues such as power, gender, rhetoric, or asceticism in Byzantine society through the lens of a single emotion or cluster of emotions. Contributors focus not only on the construction of emotions with respect to perception and cognition but also explore how emotions were communicated and exchanged across broad (multi)linguistic, political and social boundaries. Priorities are twofold: to arrive at an understanding of what the Byzantines thought of as emotions and to comprehend how theory shaped their appraisal of reality.

It is assumed that all Byzantines trembled before the Emperor, as if he was God. Emperors indeed constructed their image so as to insipre quasi-religious awe. Yet, there existed a different sort of emotion among Byzantine intellectuals: they tried to overcome their fear, satirize it. ...

В статье рассматривается председатель Думы как политический институт, который
заметно эволюционировал вместе со всей политической системы Российской
империи. Отчасти это объясняется поступательным расширением полномочий
Думы, отчасти личными качествами председателей и той партийной поддержкой,
на которую они могли рассчитывать. Так или иначе, в условиях неустойчивости
правил игры, рыхлости фракционных структур председатель обретал широкий
круг полномочий, что делало его весьма влиятельной фигурой в ...

Книга представляет собой очерк о Великой Ясе Чингис-хана, которую до сих пор принято считать сводом законов (кодексом) Монгольской империи и ее улусов — государств Чингизидов. Автор прослеживает историю создания Ясы и ее применения в тюрко-монгольских государствах, рассматривает сбор сведений о формировании представлений о ней иностранцев в Средние века и попытки ее «реконструкции», предпринимавшиеся в течение XVIII—начала XXI в. Также анализируются высказанные в последние десятилетия мнения исследователей о том, что Великая Яса, скорее ...

Drawing on Joseph Gusfield’s theory of social problems, this review traces the moral passage of menstruation in Ghana (1992–2025) from a privately managed, stigmatized phenomenon to a matter ...
