SUMMARY:Love\, Pride\, Fear\, and Happiness: Zionism as a Case Study for '
 National Emotions' - Dr Yair Berlin (University of Cambridge)

DESCRIPTION:What emotional traits are essential for building a nation? Mor
 e broadly\, are there such things as 'national emotions\,' and if so\, wha
 t are they? In this lecture\, I will explore these questions by analysing 
 the Zionist case through the lens of the history of emotions. I will exami
 ne emotions where the national dimension is evident\, such as honour and l
 ove of the homeland\, alongside emotions that may seem less directly natio
 nal\, like fear and happiness.\n\nYair completed his PhD through the Progr
 am for Hermeneutics and Cultural Studies at Bar-Ilan University\, focusing
  on religious emotions in the Lithuanian Haredi community. He is currently
  a British Academy Newton International Fellow at the University of Cambri
 dge and a Research Associate at Sidney Sussex College. His research focuse
 s on the emotional dimensions of the Zionist 'negation of the diaspora.'\n
