Elizabeth Barnes (Author)
Explores the extent to which sympathy and sentiment–through the representation of the family–are increasingly employed to construct the notion of a politically affective state in philosophical, political and literary texts. The book offers fresh interpretations of classic and lesser-known works, from Susanna Rowson’s Charlotte Temple to Herman Melville’s Billy Budd.
