[{"_id":"project:537","_type":"project","abstract":{"sv":"Bondsonen Pehr Stenberg (1758-1824) skapade under drygt fyrtio år ett unikt dokument, en självbiografisk ?levernesbeskrivning?, i tryckt format ca 1900 sidor. Den avspeglar Stenbergs klassresa från västerbottnisk bondemiljö via studier i Åbo till präst i Umeåområdet med stor detaljrikedom, inte bara i miljöskildringar utan också om Stenbergs egna känslor inför de situationer han upplever. Syftet med projektet är att studera hur vardagliga upplevelser av klasskillnader, könspositioner, och kristen tro och världsuppfattning tolkas och gestaltas i termer av känslor i Stenbergs manuskript. Detta sker genom tre delstudier: en handlar om hur hans bondebakgrund påverkar hans möten med borgerskap och adel, samt som präst i möte med en landsbygdsförsamling; vidare en studie om hans kärleksrelationer som informator i herrskapsfamiljer i Åbotrakten och på äktenskapsmarknaden i Umeå; och en studie om hans tolkningar av ?Guds vilja? som kraft i hans liv, där bondefromhet, teologi och upplysningsidéer möts. De intersektionella sambanden mellan rollerna bondson, man och präst kommer att diskuteras genom narrativ analys. Den växande internationella forskningen om emotioner under 17- och 1800-tal har huvudsakligen behandlat över- och medelklass varför detta projekt kommer att utgöra ett väsentligt bidrag till forskningsfronten.","en":"Pehr Stenberg (1758-1824), a Swedish peasant son, during some forty years created a unique document, his ?life description?. In print it amounts to some 1900 pages. It reflects his social climbing from the countryside, via university studies in Åbo, to become a minister in his home region. It is rich in details not only in descriptions of milieus but also about his own emotions in and towards the situations he experiences. The aim of the project is to study how late 18th century everyday experiences of class differences, gender positioning, and Christian faith and world-view was registered and interpreted in terms of emotions in Stenberg?s autobiography. This will be done in three studies. One deals with how his peasant background influences his relations to bourgeoisie and nobility, and as a minister in interaction with a country parish. Another study deals with his love relations as a private teacher with Åbo nobility and as a priest on the small-town matrimonial market in Umeå. One deals with his interpretations of the will of God as a force in his and others? lives, where peasant piety, theology and enlightenment ideas meet. The intersectional relations between his roles as a peasant son, a man and a priest will be discussed through narrative analysis. Since current international research on the history of emotions almost exclusively has focused on members of the middle and upper classes, this project will provide a valuable addition to the research frontier."},"project_id":"P18-0700:1_RJ","identifier_short":"P18-0700:1","dates":{"start_date":"2019-01-01","end_date":"2021-12-31"},"organizations":[{"funding":[{"_id":5,"id":"802012-1276","sv":"Riksbankens Jubileumsfond","en":"Riksbankens Jubileumsfond"}]},{"coordinating":[{"_id":715,"id":"202100-2874","sv":"Umeå universitet","en":"Umeå University"}]}],"people":[{"project_leaders":[{"_id":"authority-person:62700","orcid":"0000-0002-8467-8753","name":"Arvidsson, Alf","role":"principal_investigator","affiliation":[{"_id":715,"id":"202100-2874","sv":"Umeå universitet","en":"Umeå University"}]}]},{"other_personnel":[{"_id":"authority-person:62700","orcid":"0000-0002-8467-8753","name":"Arvidsson, Alf","role":"co_investigator","affiliation":[{"_id":715,"id":"202100-2874","sv":"Umeå universitet","en":"Umeå University"}]},{"name":"Pettersson, Richard","role":"co_investigator","affiliation":[{"_id":715,"id":"202100-2874","sv":"Umeå universitet","en":"Umeå University"}]}]}],"tags":[{"_id":11802,"id":"60503","sv":"Etnologi","en":"Ethnology"},{"_id":11774,"id":"60101","sv":"Historia","en":"History"},{"_id":11780,"id":"60203","sv":"Litteraturvetenskap","en":"General Literature Studies"}],"titles":{"sv":"Känslor i 1700-talets vardagsliv: Klass, kön och fromhet i Pehr Stenbergs levernesbeskrivning","en":"Emotions in 18th century Everyday Life: Class, gender, and godliness in Pehr Stenberg?s autobiography"},"total_funding":"4973001","type_of_awards":{"sv":"Projektbidrag","en":"Project grant"},"publications":[{"id":"diva2:1923291","type":"article-journal","status":"Published","issued":{"date-parts":[[2024]]},"title":"Coming to terms with dreams in the early nineteenth century","language":"eng","author":[{"family":"Arvidsson","given":"Alf","ORCID":"0000-0002-8467-8753","localId":"alar0001","affiliation":[{"id":"821","name":"Umeå universitet, Institutionen för kultur- och medievetenskaper"}]}],"abstract":"The clergyman Pehr Stenberg (1758–1824) in his autobiography frequently relates his andother people’s dreams and attempts to interpret them and makes possible connections to actual happenings.

This development was intimately related to status, as a high degree of sensibility was regarded as an exclusive quality reserved for the upper classes. Far less is known of how crying was valued and expressed among the lower ranks of society. Using Barbara Rosenwein's concept of emotional communities, this essay examines how crying among peasants was portrayed in the expansive life description of a Swedish clergyman, Pehr Stenberg. Stenberg was born into the peasantry but studied to become a clergyman and spent considerable time in aristocratic and bourgeois social circles. His description is an unusual source for the daily life of the peasantry, all while being influenced by the new perspectives afforded by his social elevation. This entailed him defining the peasantry as less prone to experiencing tender emotions and criticising them for their callousness about the deaths of their next of kin.Stenberg gives great prominence in his account to tears shed while practising religion. These tears manifest the ability to be moved by the word of God – an important feature of his religious upbringing. Other than religious settings, he primarily relates tears shed by peasants to familial emotional bonds. Though the official Swedish medical discourse represented peasant mothers as indifferent towards their children, Stenberg gives examples of women who were deeply affected and wept about their children's wellbeing. While Stenberg portrays women as more prone to crying than men, he also has examples of men crying in situations that serve to manifest emotional familial bonds. Although Stenberg criticises the peasantry for the indifference shown departed next of kin, he gives ample examples of deeply grieving peasants. Attitudes toward crying among peasants do not seem to have diverged greatly from those of the higher social orders. However, the secular dimensions of the culture of sensibility – for instance, the practice of crying over abstract moral principles or when reading novels – are unsurprisingly missing from descriptions of the peasantry. Further, there is nothing to indicate that crying was related to status among the peasantry.","ScopusId":"2-s2.0-85186178425","NBN":"urn:nbn:se:umu:diva-208791","issue":"2","volume":"143","page":"137-168","container-title":"Historisk Tidskrift","ISSN":"2002-4827","keyword":"culture of sensibility; history of emotions; peasants; tears; eighteenth century; känslornas historia; sensibilitetskultur; 1700-tal","publisher":"Svenska Historiska Föreningen","note":"[Summary: Tears of the peasantry: crying peasants in the life description of Pehr Stenberg, 1760–1800, p. 168]","published":[{"raw":"2023-05-31T11:02:00.000+02:00"}],"created":[{"raw":"2023-05-31T11:02:28.865+02:00"}],"updated":[{"raw":"2024-03-12T13:47:10.942+01:00"}],"URL":"https://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:umu:diva-208791"},{"id":"diva2:1817460","type":"chapter","issued":{"date-parts":[[2023]]},"title":"Pehr Stenberg och subjektet som livsprojekt","language":"swe","author":[{"family":"Pettersson","given":"Richard","ORCID":"0000-0002-6773-6552","localId":"ridpen95","affiliation":[{"id":"821","name":"Umeå universitet, Institutionen för kultur- och medievetenskaper"}]}],"ISBN":"9789180701969","NBN":"urn:nbn:se:umu:diva-217516","page":"98-164","container-title":"Från Pehr Stenbergs värld","collection-title":"Etnologiska skrifter","collection-number":"80","keyword":"Mikrohistoria; mentalitetshistoria; historiografi; idéhistoria","publisher-place":"Umeå","publisher":"Umeå University","note":"[ed] Alf Arvidsson; Ina Lindblom; Rickard Pettersson","published":[{"raw":"2023-12-06T11:49:00.000+01:00"}],"created":[{"raw":"2023-12-06T11:49:50.601+01:00"}],"updated":[{"raw":"2023-12-06T15:11:16.238+01:00"}],"URL":"https://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:umu:diva-217516"},{"id":"diva2:1818962","type":"chapter","issued":{"date-parts":[[2023]]},"title":"Pehr Stenberg tar staden i besittning : hierarkier, strategier och vardagliga praktiker","language":"swe","author":[{"family":"Arvidsson","given":"Alf","ORCID":"0000-0002-8467-8753","localId":"alar0001","affiliation":[{"id":"821","name":"Umeå universitet, Institutionen för kultur- och medievetenskaper"}]}],"ISBN":"9789180701969","NBN":"urn:nbn:se:umu:diva-217896","page":"43-68","container-title":"Från Pehr Stenbergs värld","collection-title":"Etnologiska skrifter","collection-number":"80","publisher":"Umeå University","note":"[ed] Alf Arvidsson; Ina Lindblom; Richard Pettersson","published":[{"raw":"2023-12-12T16:38:00.000+01:00"}],"created":[{"raw":"2023-12-12T16:38:10.209+01:00"}],"updated":[{"raw":"2024-09-16T14:15:22.342+02:00"}],"URL":"https://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:umu:diva-217896"},{"id":"diva2:1600628","type":"article-journal","status":"Published","issued":{"date-parts":[[2021]]},"title":"Making Sense of Romantic Jealousy in late 18<sup>th</sup>-Century Sweden : The Experiences of Pehr Stenberg","language":"eng","author":[{"family":"Lindblom","given":"Ina","localId":"inli0008","affiliation":[{"id":"820","name":"Umeå universitet, Institutionen för idé- och samhällsstudier"}]}],"abstract":"Focusing on the life description of clergyman Pehr Stenberg, this article examines the internal processing of romantic jealousy in a late 18th-century Swedish context. During his lifetime, Stenberg wrote a vast life description with the intent of documenting his innermost thoughts and feelings. In this account, the romantic jealousy that plagued Stenberg during his second marriage is described in intimate detail. Using this extensive and complex account to conduct a micro-historical exploration of romantic jealousy, this article displays jealousy as an entangled emotion by examining its relationship to key contemporary beliefs, thoughts and ideals, as well as to other emotions. Consequently, jealousy in relation to love and marriage, honour, psychological and physical pathology and religion is examined. Although comprising a single account, the Life Description of Pehr Stenberg manages to display the multidimensional nature of romantic jealousy and the very historically specific ways in which we explain and process our emotional experiences. ","DOI":"10.1080/03468755.2021.1979094","ScopusId":"2-s2.0-85115724303","NBN":"urn:nbn:se:umu:diva-188259","issue":"5","volume":"46","page":"593-618","container-title":"Scandinavian Journal of History","ISSN":"1502-7716","keyword":"History","publisher":"Routledge","published":[{"raw":"2021-10-05T12:27:00.000+02:00"}],"created":[{"raw":"2021-10-05T12:27:04.575+02:00"}],"updated":[{"raw":"2023-03-24T10:58:49.739+01:00"}],"URL":"https://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:umu:diva-188259"}],"links":[{"type":"pid","link":"https://umu.diva-portal.org/smash/api/project/swecris/project:537"}]}]
