"This impressive collection of essays is set to become a landmark text of the modern period, and its contributors represent the cutting edge of Hispanism, both within Spain and within the Anglo-American critical tradition. This is a timely volume. Emotions are not simply part of the human self, but are provoked, tempered, tolerated, and encouraged by different historical, social, and political situations and circumstances, and this collection is a way of charting a type of sociological as well as psychological history that takes account of local specificity."—Alison Sinclair, University of Cambridge, author of Trafficking Knowledge in Early Twentieth-Century Spain: Centres of Exchange and Cultural Imaginaries and Sex and Society in Early Twentieth-Century Spain: Hildegart Rodríguez and the World League for Sexual Reform
