Does twentieth-century phenomenology show that the Greek tradition
was wrong about the intentionality of the emotions, their place in
the mind, and their relevance for ethics? Reason, Emotion, and Will
argues that, contrary to some contemporary accounts of mind and
consciousness, the views of Levinas, Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty,
Ricoeur, and others, are not in conflict with the main lines of
Greek and medieval thought in this regard. In addition, the book
defends a traditional faculty-based account of the mind in
comparison with a recent model based on the direct analysis of
consciousness and conscious operations in the writings of Bernard
Lonergan. The heart of the study consists of an account of the
place of affectivity, including the passions and the higher
emotions known as desires of reason or affections of the will, in
the philosophy of Plato, Aristotle, the Stoics, Augustine, and
especially Thomas Aquinas.
