Learning How to Feel explores the ways in which children and adolescents learn not just how to express emotions that are thought to be pre-existing, but actually how to feel. The volume assumes that the embryonic ability to feel unfolds through a complex dialogue with the social and cultural environment and specifically through reading material. The fundamental formation takes place in childhood and youth. A multi-authored historical monograph, Learning How to Feel uses children's literature and advice manuals to access the training practices and learning processes for a wide range of emotions in the modern age, circa 1870-1970. The study takes an international approach, covering a broad array of social, cultural, and political milieus in Britain, Germany, India, Russia, France, Canada, and the United States.
Learning How to Feel places multidirectional learning processes at the centre of the discussion, through the concept of practical knowledge. The book innovatively draws a framework for broad historical change during the course of the period. Emotional interaction between adult and child gave way to a focus on emotional interactions among children, while gender categories became less distinct. Children were increasingly taught to take responsibility for their own emotional development, to find 'authenticity' for themselves. In the context of changing social, political, cultural, and gender agendas, the building of nations, subjects and citizens, and the forging of moral and religious values, Learning How to Feel demonstrates how children were provided with emotional learning tools through their reading matter to navigate their emotional lives.

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. 1st Edition. Hardcover, xi + 308 pages, NOT ex-library. Book is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Gentle handling wear only, a scratch on the front board. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This is a multi-authored historical monograph that investigates how children and adolescents in the modern age (c. 1870-1970) were taught not just to express, but actually to experience, a wide range of emotions. The book assumes that the ability to feel is not merely innate but develops through a complex dialogue with one's social and cultural environment, primarily through reading material. Core Themes and Historical Shifts: The study identifies several major transitions in how emotional socialisation was handled over the century: - Adult to Peer Interaction: Emotional interaction shifted from being primarily between adults and children to a focus on interactions among children themselves; - Self-Responsibility: Children were increasingly taught to take responsibility for their own emotional development and to seek "authenticity" in their feelings; - Gender Neutrality: Over time, gender categories in emotional training became less distinct; - Secularisation: Advice manuals moved from being didactic tools with religious messages to more secular and moralistic guides influenced by the professionalisation of social sciences. The volume contains 12 central chapters, each focusing on a specific emotion using a "vignette" from a famous literary work to set the scene: - Anxiety: Analysed through Mrs Gaskell; - Trust: Explored via Dickon from The Secret Garden; - Love: Discussed in the context of Wendy from Peter Pan; - Shame: Examined through the character of Piggy in Lord of the Flies; - Other Emotions: The book also covers piety, compassion, empathy, pain, fear, bravery, homesickness, and boredom. Scope and Methodology: - International Reach: While primarily focused on Britain, Germany, and the United States, the study also includes Russian, Indian, and French traditions; - Diverse Sources: The researchers analysed a shared corpus of 60 to 100 popular children's books and approximately 30 influential advice manuals for parents and teachers; - Collaborative Research: The work is a product of the Center for the History of Emotions at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development in Berlin. Expert reviewers praised the book for its rigorous collaborative methodology and its unique focus on "learning by reading". It is considered a valuable resource for students of the history of childhood and emotions, noted for its clear structure and well-argued premise that emotions are socially constructed.
