Description
Exploring the concept of affect in various disciplines, "Timing of Affect" brings together contributions from philosophy to film and media studies. This collection examines the temporal aspects of affect, including its role as a capacity of the body, an anthropological inscription, and a signal for cultural history.
The book scrutinizes how these concepts are articulated historically and contemporarily, in different forms of discourse and epistemological implications. By intensively examining the momentum of affective thought today, "Timing of Affect" sheds light on its significance in shaping our understanding of knowledge orders.
