Kindheit Und Emotion : Kinder und ihre Lebenswelten in der europäischen Frühen Neuzeit

Claudia Jarzebowski examines the relationship between childhood and emotion in the construction of social relationships. She questions anthropological preconceptions about what defines children and emotions and suggests they need to be reformulated. She places great emphasis on the categories of age and gender along with the Christian assurance of being God's children as a reliable guide through life and beyond.
