His idea buttressed the belief that white, upper-class, educated men deserved their sense of superiority by virtue of good breeding. It also implied that progress could be steered by envisioning a new blueprint for sympathy that redefined moral actions carried out in sympathy's name. Rob Boddice joins a daring intellectual history of sympathy to a portrait of how the first Darwinists defined and employed it. Combining the history of emotions, the history of medicine, the history of science and the history of morality, Boddice shows how specific interpretations of Darwinism sparked a cacophonous discourse intent on displacing previous notions of sympathy. 410 0$aHistory of emotions. 606 $aReligion and science$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aEthics$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aSympathy$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aReligion and science$xHistory 615 0$aEthics$xHistory 615 0$aSympathy$xHistory 676 $a201.65 700 $aBoddice$b Rob$01163051 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910151611703321 996 $aThe Science of Sympathy$92895547 997 $aUNINA
