In this book, eleven scholars examine a variety of emotions in ancient China and classical Greece, in their historical and social context. A general introduction presents the major issues in the analysis of emotions across cultures and over time in a given tradition. Subsequent chapters consider how specific emotions evolve and change. For example, whereas for early Chinese thinkers, worry was a moral defect, it was later celebrated as a sign that one took responsibility for things. In ancient Greece, hope did not always focus on a positive outcome, and in this respect differed from what we call ?hope.? Daring not to do, or ?undaring,? was itself an emotional value in early China. While Aristotle regarded the inability to feel anger as servile, the Roman Stoic Seneca rejected anger entirely. Hatred and revenge were encouraged at one moment in China and repressed at another. Ancient Greek responses to tragedy do not map directly onto modern emotional registers, and yet are similar to classical Chinese and Indian descriptions. There are differences in the very way emotions are conceived. This book will speak to anyone interested in the many ways that human beings feel. 410 0$aRoma Sinica 606 $aEmotions$xCross-cultural studies 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / Ancient & Classical$2bisacsh 608 $aCross-cultural studies.$2fast 615 0$aEmotions$xCross-cultural studies. 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / Ancient & Classical. 676 $a152.4 700 $aKonstan$b David$4edt$0162250 702 $aCairns$b Douglas$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aFord$b Randolph$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aHua$b Yang$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aKirby$b John T.$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aKiritsi$b Stavroula, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aKonstan$b David$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aKonstan$b David, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aLu$b Zhao, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aNylan$b Michael$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aVirág$b Curie, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aWilson$b Trenton, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aZhou$b Yiqun, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910588781303321 996 $aEmotions across Cultures$93402165 997 $aUNINA
