This essay introduces our call for an intertwined history-of-emotions/history-of science perspective. We argue that the history of science can greatly extend the history of emotions by proffering science qua science as a new resource for the study of emotions. We present and read science, in its multiple diversities and locations, and in its variegated activities, products, theories, and emotions, as constitutive of the norms, experiences, expressions, and regimes of emotions. Reciprocally, we call for a new reading of science in terms of emotions as an analytical category. Assuming emotions are intelligible and culturally learned, we extend the notion of emotion to include a nonintentional and noncausal “emotional style,” which is inscribed into (and can reciprocally be generated by) technologies, disease entities, laboratory models, and scientific texts. Ultimately, we argue that emotional styles interrelate with broader emotional cultures and thus can contribute to and/or challenge grand historical narratives.

《科学史与情感概论》。

本文介绍了我们呼吁情感史/科学史观相互交织的观点。我们认为，科学史可以通过提供科学作为一种新的情感研究资源来极大地扩展情感历史。我们呈现并阅读科学，它具有多种多样的地理位置，并以其多样化的活动，产品，理论和情感，构成了情感的规范，经验，表达和制度。相应地，我们呼吁将情感作为一种分析范畴重新解读科学。假设情感是可理解的并且是文化习得的，我们将情感的概念扩展到包括非故意和非因果关系的“情感风格”，这种风格被刻画为技术，疾病实体，实验室模型，和科学文献。最终，我们认为情感风格与更广泛的情感文化相互关联，因此可以促进和/或挑战宏大的历史叙事。
