      title = {Emotions in non-fictional representations of the  individual, 1600-1850 : between East and West /},
      abstract = {This book addresses the distinct representation of  emotions in non-fictional texts of the long Eighteenth  century (1600-1800), such as memoirs, autobiographies,  correspondences or manuals of sociability. It argues that  in personal writings passions and emotions may be  differently expressed than in fiction. It is also  comparatist in its approach, incorporating texts from  cultures as diverse as English, French, Korean and Chinese,  and themes through which various emotions are invoked, such  as Buddhism, death, a re-imagined Hellenic antiquity or  18th century European "Orientalism". This book is  distinctive in its choice of genres (non-fictional), its  period, and its cross-cultural approach. It will benefit  those interested in exploring emotions as a historical and  cultural product, and in enriching their knowledge of an  emerging scholarly direction: studies in autobiography and  memoirs, often insufficiently explored in earlier  historical periods.},
