Excerpt from Essai sur les Passions
Mon but est de délimiter cette classe de faits syste matiquement omise, sous prétexte que le mot pas sion est vague et élastique. Le terme émotion actuellement en faveur, ne l'est - il pas encore plus? La question est de savoir s'il existe des manifestations spéciales de la vie humaine qu'on peut ranger sous ce titre spécial. Pourl'établir, je me suis restreint à trois points Fixer avec toute la précision possible les caractères propres aux passions et les éléments qui les constituent; Retracer leur généalogie, en les rattachant aux tendances primitives dont elles sont issues et montrer par quelles changeantes combinai sons s'expliquent leurs variétés Enfin, rechercher pourquoi et comment elles finissent.

Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This fascinating book delves into the enigmatic world of human passions, exploring their distinct nature and examining them through the lens of psychology. The author challenges traditional views that equate passions with mere emotions, arguing instead that they possess unique characteristics that warrant their recognition as a separate class of psychological phenomena. The book meticulously dissects the anatomy of passions, identifying three fundamental elements: a fixed idea or goal that serves as the driving force, a prolonged duration, and a heightened intensity. Passions are portrayed not simply as intense emotions, but as complex mental formations that involve intricate interplay between cognitive and affective processes. The author traces the genesis of passions to a confluence of internal and external factors, emphasizing the role of innate predispositions and the influence of life experiences in shaping their development. Drawing upon examples from literature and real-life anecdotes, the book vividly illustrates the diverse manifestations of passions, from the all-consuming love affairs to the unyielding ambitions that define human existence. Moreover, the book sheds light on the paradoxical yet crucial role of reason in the realm of passions. While passions are often seen as irrational forces, the author demonstrates that they possess an internal logic and employ a form of reasoning distinct from rational thought, one that is driven by emotional rather than intellectual considerations. Ultimately, this book provides a comprehensive and thought-provoking examination of the nature of passions, offering fresh insights into their complexities and their profound impact on human behavior. By delving into the psychological mechanisms underlying these powerful emotions, the author challenges conventional wisdom and deepens our understanding of the human experience.
