| Zusammenfassung: | Explores the range and complexity of human emotions and their transmission across cultural traditionsWhat makes us laugh and cry, sometimes at the same time? How do these two primal, seemingly discrete and non-verbal modes of expression intersect in everyday life and ritual, and what range of emotions do they evoke? How may they be voiced, shaped and coloured in literature and liturgy, art and music?Bringing together scholars from diverse periods and disciplines of Hellenic and Byzantine studies, this volume explores the shifting shapes and functions of laughter and tears. With a focus on the tragic, the comic and the tragicomic dimensions of laughter and tears in art, literature and performance, as well as on their emotional, socio-cultural and religious significance, it breaks new ground in the study of ancient and Byzantine affectivity.Key featuresIncludes an international cast of 25 distinguished contributors Prominence is given to performative arts and to interactions with other cultures Transitions from Late Antiquity to Byzantium, and from Byzantium to the Renaissance, form focal points from which contributors look backwards, forwards and sidewaysHighlights the variety, audacity and quality of the finest Byzantine works and the extent to which they anticipated the renaissance |

Mrz 2022) Explores the range and complexity of human emotions and their transmission across cultural traditionsWhat makes us laugh and cry, sometimes at the same time? How do these two primal, seemingly discrete and non-verbal modes of expression intersect in everyday life and ritual, and what range of emotions do they evoke? How may they be voiced, shaped and coloured in literature and liturgy, art and music?Bringing together scholars from diverse periods and disciplines of Hellenic and Byzantine studies, this volume explores the shifting shapes and functions of laughter and tears. With a focus on the tragic, the comic and the tragicomic dimensions of laughter and tears in art, literature and performance, as well as on their emotional, socio-cultural and religious significance, it breaks new ground in the study of ancient and Byzantine affectivity.Key featuresIncludes an international cast of 25 distinguished contributors Prominence is given to performative arts and to interactions with other cultures Transitions from Late Antiquity to Byzantium, and from Byzantium to the Renaissance, form focal points from which contributors look backwards, forwards and sidewaysHighlights the variety, audacity and quality of the finest Byzantine works and the extent to which they anticipated the renaissance In English Classics & Ancient History HISTORY / Ancient / General bisacsh Emotions in art Emotions in literature Emotions in music Greek literature History and criticism Agapitos, Panagiotis Sonstige oth Alexiou, Margaret Sonstige oth Angold, Michael 1940- Sonstige (DE-588)133539962 oth Ashbrook Harvey, Susan Sonstige oth Beaton, Roderick Sonstige oth Beta, Simone Sonstige oth Boeck, Elena Sonstige oth Cairns, Douglas Sonstige oth Halliwell, Stephen Sonstige oth Herrin, Judith Sonstige oth Hinterberger, Martin Sonstige oth Holton, David Sonstige oth Maciver, Calum Sonstige oth Marciniak, Przemysław Sonstige oth Mullett, Margaret Sonstige oth Nilsson, Ingela Sonstige oth Papadogiannakis, Ioannis Sonstige oth Pizzone, Aglae Sonstige oth Seaford, Richard Sonstige oth https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781474403801 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
