Keywords:
Different people feel different emotions when they are diagnosed with cancer. Both today and a century ago, fear and hope, shame and disgust, sadness and joy are and were the emotions experienced by many cancer patients and their loved ones. But these emotions do not just have significance for the people who feel them. They have also exerted a surprisingly profound influence on how hospitals and laboratories dealt with cancer, how early detection campaigns portrayed it, and how doctors talked about it with their patients. Bettina Hitzer details the history of cancer and emotions in twentieth-century Germany and thus follows the cancer-associated transformations of emotional regimes, emotional politics, and emotional experiences through five different political systems. In doing so, the study underscores that political caesuras resonate in the immediate corporeality of the history of emotions.

Recenzijas

Hitzer's well produced and richly illustrated book is a welcome addition to the growing literature on the history of cancer, which has so far been dominated by studies of developments in the UK and North America. The book engages very productively with the existing historiography, and the approach focused on the history of emotions works extremely well. * Carsten Timmermann, Professor of History of Science, Technology & Medicine; Centre for theHistory of Science, Technology and Medicine (CHSTM), Division of MedicalEducation, The University of Manchester, Manchester, M13 9PL, UK, European Journal for the History of Medicine and Health *
