This volume offers a much needed shift of focus in the study of
emotion in the history of philosophy. Discussion has tended to
focus on the moral relevance of emotions, and (except in ancient
philosophy) the role of emotions in cognitive life has received
little attention. Thirteen new essays investigate the continuities
between medieval and early modern thinking about the emotions, and
open up a contemporary debate on the relationship between emotions,
cognition, and reason, and the way emotions figure in our own
cognitive lives. A team of leading philosophers of the medieval,
renaissance, and early modern periods explore these ideas from the
point of view of four key themes: the situation of emotions within
the human mind; the intentionality of emotions and their role in
cognition; emotions and action; the role of emotion in
self-understanding and the social situation of individuals.
