Description
Jordan talks with Thomas Dixon about passions and emotions. They cover topics like: What is passion, emotion, appetite, and affection? What is the history behind the changing landscape on these terms during the nineteenth century? What did Augustine and Aquinas think about them? How were they similar? How did they differ? How was "emotion" created as a category? What would those like Augustine and Aquinas think had they been alive? What is the value of the category emotion? Would it be better to go back to an older way of thinking about it? And much more!Resources:1) From Passions to Emotions, Thomas Dixon2) The History of Emotions, Thomas Dixon3) The Passions: Emotions and the Meaning of Life, Robert Solomon4) The Enticing Sin of Empathy, Joe Rigney5) Descartes' Error: Emotion, Reason, and the Human Brain, Antonio Damasio6) The Emotions Lab7) Losing Our Minds: The Challenge of Defining Mental Illness, Lucy Foulkes8) Sketch for a Theory of the Emotions, Jean-Paul Sartre9) Emotion: The History of a Keyword in CrisisSupport the show
