Most of us pride ourselves on being rational, thinking creatures, but what about the role of emotions in human life and history? This week on RfRx, we are joined by one of the world’s leading experts on emotions: Dr. Richard Firth-Godbehere. His award-winning interdisciplinary research walks the line between history, psychology, linguistics, philosophy and futurism. This week he will discuss how our understandings of emotions change over time and space and how they can influence the wider world.

He is Distinguished Professor of Liberal Arts and Humanities at Woxsen University and an Honorary Research Fellow at the Centre for the History of the Emotions, Queen Mary University of London. His award-winning interdisciplinary research walks the line between history, psychology, linguistics, philosophy and futurism.
