Emotions and affect are used synonymously in this study since the use of the term ‘emotion’ today embraces the terms ‘affect’ and ‘affective’. See Oatley (2004), 3. 81. Even though they are very much distinct from each other, fascination and fear share some common ground: they are both emotional reactions that increase our attentional focus and, as a result, frequently interlinked, as for instance by Münkler (1997). 82.

Nishimata (2008), 28. 138. With the exception of Felski’s definition of ‘shock’, which verges on the concept of fascination. Distinguishing it from ‘enchantment’, which she describes as the pleasurable experience of total, self-forgetting immersion in a text, Felski understands ‘shock’ as a profoundly ‘paradoxical allure’ (Felski [2008], 134). 139.

This investment connects to the activation of gap-filling activities, as described by Iser (1980). 145. See Chapter 4. 146. Hogan (2003), 185. 147. See Massey (2009), esp. 93–132. 148.

See Stanley (1993), esp. 9–13. 154. See Girard (2000 [1991]), 22. 155. Benjamin (1969), 188. Insofar as aura, for Benjamin, is ‘the unique manifesta- tion of a distance’ of the art object, which ultimately remains inapproachable (ibid., 148), the concept ultimately differs from fascination, which arises from the tension between proximity and distance. They connect, however, in the context of the returned gaze. 156. For Jaeger, the reciprocal gaze is a key element of ‘charismatic painting’ (2012: 200). Notes to Chapter 1 259 157.

Though Solomon lists fascination among other intense emotions which exceed the control of the will, he does not further enlarge on its nature or mechanisms. 177. Felski (2008), 54. 178.
