Summary:
"This volume brings together leading scholars to investigate how emotions are expressed, mediated, and theorized in the visual arts of China from antiquity to the modern era. Inspired by the "Materiality and Affect: Emotion in Chinese Art" symposium held at the University of Chicago in May 2022, co-editors Jeehee Hong and Wu Hung have compiled these scholarly studies into a new book that deepens and enriches understanding of this important field of study. These essays illuminate the complex interplay between inner experience and external stimulus, exploring topics ranging from the materiality of qing (emotion) to the spatialization of the emotion-realm. Contributors analyze texts, objects, and images to reveal how emotions are not simply personal or ineffable, but are embedded in social, philosophical, and material contexts" --Provided by publisher.
