Recenzje

'No book on the subject of emotion and narrative can hold a candle to Habermas' cutting-edge and wide-ranging monograph. Meticulously researched and cogently argued, this landmark work will be essential reading not only for specialists in emotion psychology, but for everyone interested in autobiographical storytelling and the centrality of narrative to emotion.' Ansgar Nünning, International Graduate Centre for the Study of Culture, Justus Liebig University Giessen, Germany
