\"\"The Centre for the History of the Emotions at Queen Mary, University of London and Bart’s Pathology Museum bring you THE CARNIVAL OF LOST EMOTIONS, supported by the Wellcome Trust.<\/p>\n

Join the mysterious Ringmaster, his Lost Emotions Machine and his team of historical assistants, as we take a dark and unsettling look at the emotions of the past and present.<\/p>\n

On 13th March 2013, between 18.00 and 21.00 at Bart’s Pathology Museum, be amazed as the Lost Emotions Machine pulls long-forgotten, obsolete, and non-‘Western’ emotional states from the ether.<\/p>\n

Emotional states such as Koro, Accedia, Lack of Moral Fibre and Nostalgia will be revealed and explored, with examples from real historical cases.<\/p>\n

From modern neuroscience to medieval monks – this emotional journey will amaze and surprise you!<\/p>\n

Doors open for free wine and nibbles at 18.00; show starts at 19.00 and lasts just under an hour. The rest of the time is to eat, drink and discuss.<\/p>\n

This event is part of an international program of events in support of Brain Awareness Week 2013<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Venue: Barts Pathology Museum, 3rd Floor, Robin Brook Centre, West Smithfield, EC1A 7BE<\/p>\n
