Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Life is a sequence of emotional states. But what are emotions and why are they so important to us? In one of the most extensive investigations of the emotions ever published, Robert Roberts develops a novel conception of what emotions are and then applies it to a large range of types of emotion and related phenomena. Aimed principally at philosophers and psychologists, this book will certainly be accessible to readers in other disciplines such as religion and anthropology.
Robert C. Roberts first presented his vivid account of emotions as
'concern-based construals' in his book Emotions: An Essay in Aid of
Moral Psychology (Cambridge, 2003). In this new book he extends
that account to the moral life. He explores the ways in which
emotions can be a basis for moral judgments, how they account for
the deeper moral identity of actions we perform, how they are
constitutive of morally toned personal relationships like
friendship, enmity, collegiality and parenthood, and how pleasant
and unpleasant emotions interact with our personal wellbeing
(eudaimonia). He then sketches how, by means of their moral
dimensions, emotions participate in our virtues and vices, and for
better or worse, express our moral character. His rich study will
interest a wide range of readers working on virtue ethics, moral
psychology and emotion theory.
