OVERVIEW CHE strives to facilitate research and assist existing and emerging scholars. The Centre currently supports two senior research fellows and 22 postdoctoral research fellows. These scholars, each based at one of the Centre’s node universities, contribute valuable research to CHE while also developing their own expertise and networks. To read more about their research projects, please see the project lists accompanying each program report.

‘Faith and Fear: Constructing the Devil as on Omnipresent Threat in Lutheran Neue Zeitungen’ RESEARCH My project explores how news media constructed fear of God, the Devil and witches in sixteenth-century Germany. I have been investigating how the threat of the Devil was constructed in early modern German news reports known as Neue Zeitungen. SPOTLIGHT My research has found that the Devil was presented as a threat in three main ways: as God’s hangman, as the instigator of sin and crime, and as a possessor. Lutheran Emotions in Legal Practice authors of news reports often compelled readers to understand that the Devil was everywhere, ready to pounce if you lost your faith for one moment. In short, he could punish you, tempt you and possess you. But why were Lutheran reports so focused on the threat of the Devil? While I agree with Nathan Johnstone (who has written about the Devil in early modern England) that the threat of hell and the Devil was an effective form of social control, I believe there is more going on beneath the surface. Lutheran authors were using fear to enhance faith. Rather than fear the Devil, authors wanted people to fear God, but in order to make them turn their hearts to God they employed the threat of the Devil.

‘Modelling Emotions: 3D Visualisation of Medieval and Early Modern Artefacts’ RESEARCH ‘Emotions3D’ disrupts the cultural apparatus by which museums have traditionally mediated our experiences with cultural heritage and places more possibilities for interpretation into the hands of viewers. Users of this resource have the opportunity to SPOTLIGHT manually manipulate objects in 3D space, and additional annotation markers take the user on a ‘virtual tour’ around each object – ‘zooming in’ on specific sites of interest The Final Zest Festival which relate to their emotional function or material properties. This provides new options for digital curation; annotating directly onto objects and experimenting with different lighting and display conditions. This project has contributed to the creation of best-practice standards for cultural heritage photogrammetry, which partially addresses issues in fragmentary model capture and ‘photogrammetric uncanniness’.

INSIGHT

‘Creativity, Collaboration and Emotion in Music’ My research examines the emotional dimensions of Western art music through an ethnographic study of two multi-person collaborative projects, both of which rework baroque music for present-day audiences. Talking to artists and observing their creative activities – from composing through to rehearsing and remixing – has revealed the multi- faceted power and significance of the emotions within this musical culture. Emotional practices can reproduce the dominant institutional characteristics of Western art music, for example, the hierarchical separation between composer, performer and listener, but may also seek to reconfigure them, seeking more distributed notions of creativity and emphasising the interpretative agency of listeners. The emotions provide an important creative resource: feelings animate musicians’ bodies, inform decisions and orient artistic negotiations. Practitioners bring diverse and sometimes divergent attitudes about what the emotions are and what they do: some are invested in the historical specificity of past emotional cultures; others treat the emotions as trans-historical or play with the impossibility of historical authenticity. These attitudes carry broader implications for practitioners’ sense of their ethical relationship with the musical past or with their present-day audiences.

84 2016 ANNUAL REPORT | 85 ACADEMIC TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT INSIGHTS SPOTLIGHT ‘Rereading Emotion in the Eighteenth-Century Novel, 1740–1755’ Postgraduate Advanced In his novels, Samuel Richardson clearly sets up multiple ways of thinking about passion: on the one hand it is a violent, corrosive and harmful pretext for cruelty Training Seminars – a passion that harms – and on the other a ‘milder, better, and more agreeable’ passion (Clarissa) has the potential to heal. Part of the difficulty of interpreting these novels’ receptions – and Clarissa in particular – is that these are sexually inflected concepts of passion, and they were, even from the beginning, read as such. By reading the novel with alertness to expressions of love and passion, we find that Clarissa’s feelings for Anna Howe are those that her first readers longed for her to express: they are the very feelings that allow Clarissa to show the ‘frankness of her disposition’, and ‘openly avow her love’. It is the reader’s prejudice, not Richardson’s, I believe, that privileges one kind of (heterosexual) passion over another: what Clarissa feels can go by the same name. She just doesn’t feel it for Lovelace. Olivia Murphy (AI 2016)

‘Interdisciplinary Approaches to Law, History and Emotions’ PATS. ‘A Literary History of Self-Government’ What has continually struck me as I have read further into the literature of the English Renaissance is how bound up the language of government is with ideas about the proper management of the ‘affections’ or ‘passions’ – what we today call ‘emotions’. This nexus between ‘the political’ and ‘the psychological’ crops up everywhere in the writing of the period. Take, for example, a speech from 1594 by a prominent In 2016 CHE sponsored two Postgraduate Advanced Training Seminars (PATS): legal officer of the Elizabethan regime, Thomas Fleming. Fleming asserts that a ‘Interdisciplinary Approaches to Law, History and Emotions’ at USyd on 29 September, ‘magistrate’, or ruler, must be above all ‘discreet’, discretion being ‘not so much a virtue as it is a moderatrix and governess of all virtues’.

These events aimed to facilitate discussions instructress to a ruler – one engendering ‘order’ in the magistrate’s ‘affections’. about emotions history and its intersection with other analytical frameworks.

“If I were to measure the impact of CHE in terms of my published research output, then I could show you how enabling the Centre has been for me. Such measures are important, but other less tangible qualities of CHE are possibly more so. I am thinking about how the Centre fosters intellectual community. Two features of the research communities hosted by CHE come to mind: interdisciplinarity and democracy, and both are invaluable, particularly for early career scholars. In my experience CHE Collaboratories, conferences and scholarly conversations are radically level. Not only do they encourage the contributions of all participants, be they graduate student, professor or international expert, but more importantly each of these different voices is given weight. Such engagement generates social and intellectual connections that nourish and generate research with a fertility and an enthusiasm which defy the pervasive sense that the outlook for humanities in the Australian academy is bleak. And for this I am very grateful.”
