Hardback. Condition: New. The volume is based on the assumption that, as demonstrated by the British psychologist Keith Oatley and the Portuguese neuroscientist Antonio Damasio, emotions are involuntary responses to sensory triggers and give rise to real action programs. Generated by the limbic brain and capable of releasing chemical molecules such as dopamine or cortisol, the triggering of emotional responses is involuntarily and relies on images for activation since they have the power to capture emotions, as argued by Aby Warburg. This means that, although emotions are genetically embedded in our behavioral repertoire, they are controlled and managed according to the social group and culture to which individuals belong. As a matter of fact, all individuals share the same repertoire of emotional responses, but it is culture that governs how this repertoire is expressed.Desire and lust, care and nourishment, attachment and love, joy, anger, contempt, panic, compassion, admiration, fear, envy, and jealousy find their activation space in the social context. So, for Damasio, emotions represent a toolkit essential to relational life, and this volume primarily addresses the relationship between emotions and historical-cultural contexts.

Brossura. Condition: new. A cura di Cutolo F.Roma, 2024; br., pp. 312, cm 15x21.(I Libri di Viella. 483). A lungo lasciata ai margini della memoria pubblica, la pandemia influenzale del 1918-1920, responsabile di un numero di morti stimato tra i 17 e i 50 milioni, ha acquisito una notorietà inedita dal 2020, in concomitanza con l'emergenza da Covid-19. La cosiddetta "Spagnola" ha attirato anche l'interesse degli studi storici, che fino ad allora si erano poco occupati dell'evento malgrado la sua portata. In questo contesto, la Rete toscana degli Istituti storici della Resistenza e dell'età contemporanea ha promosso un progetto di ricerca pluriennale, confluito in questo volume, volto a ricostruire la storia della Spagnola in Toscana. I saggi offrono una panoramica sulla vicenda regionale da più prospettive e approfondiscono vari temi (i numeri del fenomeno, la gestione igienico-sanitaria, l'assistenza, le risposte delle istituzioni civili e religiose, le reazioni popolari, le memorie pubbliche e private dell'evento, ecc.), allo scopo di far emergere i caratteri specifici e generali del fenomeno. Libro.
