Abstract

This volume provides an overview of Catalan culture through the lens of Affect Studies. The goal is to examine and interpret literature, performing arts, music, and dance as reflections of contemporary emotional regimes. The essays in the book address two primary objectives regarding the presence of emotions in today’s world. Firstly, they explore discourses on pain, vulnerability, anger or resilience, among other concepts, to explain how emotions and affects manifest in culture. Secondly, they examine the mechanisms by which art can either challenge or reproduce societal affective mandates.
