    Is it possible to conceive of a Hello Kitty Middle Ages or a Tickle Me Elmo Renaissance? The Oxford English Dictionary dates the first reference to “cute” in the sense of “attractive, pretty, charming” to 1834. More recently, Sianne Ngai has offered a critical overview of the cuteness of the twentieth-century avant-garde within the context of consumer culture. But if cuteness can get under the skin, what kinds of surfaces does it best infiltrate, particularly in the framework of historical forms, events, and objects that traditionally have been read as emergences around “big” aesthetics of formal symmetries, high affects, and resemblances? The Retrofuturism of Cuteness seeks to undo the temporal strictures surrounding aesthetic and affective categories, to displace a strict focus on commodification and cuteness, and to interrogate how cuteness as a minor aesthetics can refocus our perceptions and readings of both premodern and modern media, literature, and culture. Taking seriously the retro and the futuristic temporalities of cuteness, this volume puts in conversation projects that have unearthed remnants of a “cult of cute”—positioned historically and critically in between transitions into secularization, capitalist frameworks of commodification, and the enchantment of objects—and those that have investigated the uncanny haunting of earlier aesthetics in future-oriented modes of cuteness.

Memorable instances of this tendency include the representation of love as a schoolroom exercise conducted under the disciplinary gaze of the mistress, melancholy as a process of gradual decline like the declension of the noun, and courtship as a practice in which the participants are arranged like the parts of speech in a sentence. The Grammar Rules of Affection explores this synthesis of the affective and the pedagogical in Renaissance literature, analysing examples from major texts by Philip Sidney, William Shakespeare, and Ben Jonson. Drawing on philosophical approaches to emotion, theories of social practice, and the history of education, this book argues that emotions appear in Renaissance literature as conventional, rule-guided practices rather than internal states. This claim represents a novel intervention in the historical study of emotion, departing from the standard approaches to emotions as either corporeal phenomena or mental states. Combining linguistic philosophy and theory of emotion, The Grammar Rules of Affection works to overcome this dualistic crux by locating emotion in the expressions and practices of everyday life

    Desde la Antigüedad clásica, la literatura ha ido configurando una serie de personajes femeninos para ser inculcados como modelos de conducta a las mujeres. Muchos de ellos se han convertido en estereotipos representativos de virtudes inherentes y deseables en el sexo femenino o, por el contrario, encarnan comportamientos reprobatorios. Se pretende con ello establecer códigos de conducta que redefinan su papel como hijas, esposas y madres, pero también como protagonistas de la vida cultural y, en algunos casos, política. Estos once estudios de acreditados especialistas, ordenados con un criterio temático-temporal, ofrecen una extensa y profunda panorámica sobre los arquetipos femeninos desde la Antigüedad hasta el siglo XVI, con un análisis de sus orígenes, evolución y función desde un enfoque histórico y literario. Se abordan en ellos los discursos teóricos y el estudio de figuras femeninas tradicionales, haciendo una relectura reivindicativa de las mismas, o analizando el proceso de reformulación y de semantización que han sufrido. En definitiva, este volumen constituye una importante aportación a la historia de las mentalidades y, más en concreto, a la historia de las mujeres como pieza clave de la cultura intelectual de Occidente. The volume gathers eleven contributions on the origins, evolution and function of female models in Western culture, from Greco-Roman texts to medieval and Renaissance literature. Organized in four thematic blocks, the book intends to elucidate how misogynistic discourse and its opposite are constructed in literary and didactical works dealing with feminine archetypes.
