This book examines the vital role of affect and feeling within the work of the early Frankfurt School. The author investigates a range of concepts - including melancholia, hope, (un)happiness, objects, and mimesis - and argues that a contemporary reading of critical theory needs to accommodate an adequate understanding of affect.
Machine generated contents note: 1. Thinking through feeling: critical theory and the affective turn -- 2. Feeling blue: melancholic dispositions and conscious unhappiness -- 3. feeling for things: objects, affects, mimesis -- 4. Expectant emotion and the politics of hope.
