In order to have a constructive discussion about feelings in the late Middle Ages, it is beneficial to first evaluate how the feelings of individual men and women were defined. As such, the purpose of this book is to explore the words used by late -medieval men and women to refer to their feelings and to examine their meanings. By doing so, it becomes possible to better understand the efforts by late -medieval society to express, use, and transmit certain feelings, especially as they related to manoeuvres of power or the articulation of social values.

The relationship between rulers and their subjects is always channelled by emotion. This volume explores the specific tones this relationship took on in the Middle Ages, as well as their accordance with a concept of power based ultimately on agreement, an inclination to visualise emotions, a social pedagogy based on fear, and a religious ideology which placed humanity between divine order and divine wrath. It also examines the emotive models used to rule society and deal with conflicts. Together, the contributions in this book demonstrate how our understanding of late medieval society can be enhanced by recognising the emotional strategies present in the game of power and how they were used to build authority.

The life experiences of men and women take on meaning through the emotionality they entail: the intensity of these experiences build certain memories which link the individuals within a society. As such, this volume argues that examining the management of emotions in late-medieval society will allow us to better understand it. By discussing theoretical frameworks for the historical study of emotions and presenting a range of case studies from the Middle Ages, the authors of this book illustrate how the management of emotions reflects and sheds light on the code of values and behaviour that guided this society.

The Crown of Aragon. A Singular Mediterranean Empire recovers the history of an empire which was of great importance in the late medieval Mediterranean, but which has since been relegated almost to oblivion by the course of history. The Crown of Aragon was a Mediterranean crossroads: between west and east for the economy, and between north and south for culture and religion, drawing in many different peoples, covering Iberia to Greece. A new vision of the Crown of Aragon as a framework of overlapping identities facilitates its historiographical recovery, showcased in the chapters of this volume which analyse the economy, institutions, social evolution, political strategy and cultural expression in literature and art of the Crown of Aragon.
