Inner Lives: Emotions, Identity and the Supernatural, 1300–1900

This project will investigate how, between 1300 and 1900, “our ancestors understood themselves and their environments, both seen and unseen”, according to principal investigator Malcolm Gaskill, professor of early modern history at the University of East Anglia. “We’re focusing in particular on the supernatural, and ways in which people once used emotions to communicate with invisible forces in the three interconnected contexts of the home, the community and the cosmos,” he said. “One of the main motivations was a desire to bring together historians of the medieval, early modern and modern periods, so that we could study long-term continuity and change. Historians often work within quite small timeframes, which tends to limit this kind of cultural history.” Professor Gaskill added that the team hoped to establish “some kind of model or common methodology applicable to the three periods and research areas” that will advance historical understanding of inner lives, especially the practical use of emotions.
