SEMEE is officially 1 year old! 🥳 Thank you so much for all your support of the site...it's been amazing to see it grow. We have a redesign coming in the near-future, but the same functionality will be retained: I hope you keep using (and contributing to!) the bibliographies!

Today's #EmotionSourceOfTheWeek is William Temple's 1674 letter on #Grief, written to Elizabeth Percy, Countess of Essex after the death of her only daughter. Printed in his Miscellanea (1680).

Seems like a good today to read George Wither's long poem "Of Feare," from his collection Abuses Stript, and Whipt (1613)!
🎃 Happy Halloween! 🎃 #OMeTisFeare
Today's #EmotionSourceoftheWeek is a text I just discovered tonight: William Mason's A Handful of Essaies (1621). It contains (among other things) essays on Disloyalty, Pride, Covetousness, Envy, and Flatterers...

I'm going to be posting an #EmotionSourceoftheWeek! The first is the 1615 English translation of Benedetto Varchi's The Blazon of Iealousie. A fascinating text, this is the most complete treatment of jealousy that I've found in the period! #emostorians
Just discovered Anthony Sherley's Witts New Dyall (1604). It contains short poems on Love, Hope, Humility, Constancy, Chastity, Gladness, Cruelty, Friendship, Courtesy, Courage, Covetousness, Rage, Fear, Hate/Envy, Bravery, Ingratitude, Pride, Pain, Tears, and more!
In expanding the site, we're going to try to also account for early modern discourses that are not emotions themselves, but that have proximity to emotion.
To this end, I've added new categories for NEOSTOICISM and TACITISM -- check it out when you get a chance!
⚔️☠️REVENGE!!! ⚔️☠️
I've been adding to our secondary bibliography on Revenge in early modern England, which is now over 100 entries! Check it out, and please add things that I've missed!

Did you know that SEMEE also contains bibliographies on the senses in early modern England?
Last night I added many entries on SOUND to the secondary bibliography! 🔊🎵🎶👂
