Summary

Richard Sorabji: Emotions and peace of mind

From stoic anxiety to Christian temptation

Richard Sorabji is completely unknown to the Croatian readership. This self-professed great man who spent his working life as a historian of philosophy at Oxford wrote several important works in the history of philosophy and edited several extensive ancient commentaries on the work of Aristotle. In the book Emotions and peace of mind, Sorabji offers us a philosophical history of emotions in ancient thought.
It is a capital work in which he presents the genealogy of emotions and explains how different philosophers and theologians dealt with the problem of emotions and passions in everyday life. Sorabji explains the origin of emotions and passions and offers therapeutic models for dealing with the inner world of emotions that determine our perception of reality.
Sorabji states the importance of judging emotions and passions, desires and wills, which must be therapeutically disciplined in order to be able to modify them. This is how the Stoics and early Christian theologians like Augustine used philosophy for therapeutic purposes. We need this book today more than ever. If Thousand Plateaus is a diagnosis, Sorabji's book could be therapy.
