糖心原创's Node of the approaches emotions studies from the perspective of religion, philosophy, history, health humanities and literature from antiquity to today.
We ask how emotions have been understood and performed, and how they have shaped and continue to affect intellectual and cultural life.
Our researchers are expert in intersections between emotions research and analytic philosophy, religious ethics, systematic theology, New Testament studies, early Christianity, late-antique and Byzantine studies, medieval and early modern history and literature, liturgy, and modern history and politics.
We have emerging research strengths in emotions and health humanities. We seek research students interested in how emotions affect questions in bioethics and theology, cultural determinants of health, disability studies, and studies of the life cycle. Projects in these areas explore emotions, wellbeing, and health from diverse perspectives.
