24Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.
Synopsis
What makes it possible for self-interest, cruelty and violence to become part of the benevolent, compassionate ideology of eighteenth-century sensibility? This book explores forms of emotional response, including sympathy, tears, swoons and melancholia through a range of eighteenth-century literary, philosophical and scientific texts.
