The rapid emergence and consolidation of the history of emotions has already demonstrated the usefulness of the field of study in upending established historical narratives. While a heterodoxy of approaches still dominates the field, until recently, these approaches have been dominantly adult focused. This essay highlights recent work in the history of childhood and youth, questioning that focus and providing a multiplicity of ways to combine the history of childhood and the history of emotions, with a view to both the changing emotional prescriptions and proscriptions of childhood and to children's emotional experiences. I argue that the history of childhood might also influence the study of the history of emotions, adding greater range and depth of analysis as well as asking probing questions of the most important theoretical contributions to that field. To that end, the essay analyses the usefulness of new theoretical tools: ‘emotional formations’ and ‘emotional frontiers’.

情感历史的迅速出现和巩固已经证明了研究领域在颠覆既定历史叙事方面的有用性。尽管方法的异端方法仍占主导地位，但直到最近，这些方法仍主要集中在成年人身上。本文重点介绍了童年和青年史上的最新工作，质疑了这一重点，并提供了多种方式将童年历史和情感史结合起来，以期改变童年的情感处方和禁忌以及对儿童的情感禁忌。情感体验。我认为，童年的历史也可能会影响对情感历史的研究，增加了更大的分析范围和深度，并提出了对该领域最重要的理论贡献的探测问题。为此，本文分析了新的理论工具的有用性：“情感形态”和“情感边界”。
