Academic emotions : feeling the institution /
Barclay, Katie,author.
"The university is an institution that disciplines the academic self. As such it produces both a particular emotional culture and, at times, the emotional suffering of those who find such disciplinary practices discomforting. Drawing on a rich array of writing about the modern academy by contemporary academics, this 'Element' explores the emotional dynamics of the academy as a disciplining institution, the production of the academic self, and the role of emotion in negotiating power in the ivory tower. Using methodologies from the history of emotion, it seeks to further our understanding of the relationship between the institution, emotion and the self."--Page 4 of printed paper wrapper.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 54-71).
