Beschreibung

<p><b>A dazzling history of a dangerous emotion, by acclaimed historian Agnes Arnold-Forster.<br><br>'Absorbing' - <i>The</i> <i>Guardian</i><br>'Illuminating' - <i>Vogue<br>'</i>Fascinating' - Pandora Sykes<br>'Juicy' - <i>nb.</i></b><br><br>In <i>Nostalgia</i>, historian Agnes Arnold-Forster blends neuroscience and psychology with the history of medicine and emotions to explore the evolution of nostalgia from seventeenth-century Switzerland (when it was held to be an illness that could, quite literally, kill you) to the present day (when it is co-opted by advertising agencies and politicians alike to sell us goods and policies).<br><br>It is a fascinating, compelling story of a social and political emotion, vulnerable to misuse, and one that reflects the anxieties of the age. It is also a clear-eyed analysis of what we are doing now, how we feel about it and what we might want to change about the world we live in.<br><br><b>'Beautifully compact, wide-ranging and enjoyable' - <i>TLS</i></b></p>
